Removing the call to "DeinstallStart()" actually should do it. Don't forget to look for "DeinstallEnd()" (IIRC, but something similar) also.

Hmm, search for the string 'REGDB_UNINSTALL_NAME' - should be around there...
don't have that eaither :-)
still haven't received answer for this question...
anyone ?

Brute force method - delete the uninstall string from the registry...
i thought about it..
but it writes to the registry after the installation completed.

its too late
