The only thing that changed was the person (and therefore machine) that
built the binary (i.e. the packaging process, but nothing internal).

What sort of crash happened?  Was there any sort of error message presented?

I've tested the installer on a (fresh) Win2000 OL2000 SP1 machine, and on an
WinXP SP1 OL2002 SP2 machine, and both work fine.  I wonder if this is a
problem when installing to Outlook 2000 SP3?

If other people that have installed 1.0 (successfully or not) could let me
know what version of Windows & Outlook they are using, that would be great.
