Freeware Install Shield type thing available?

[SimonMallion]

Does anybody know if there are any freewware InstallShield-type programs available, eg something where you can choose the installation path, and also modify autoexec.bat and registry?

Thanks for your input. :)

Though honestly I've never used it myself, Nullsoft (the makers of Winamp) have their Pimp Installer system available for free use. I don't know if it'll do everything you'd like, however. I hope that's at least marginally helpful.

That website for NSIS (Nullsoft SuperPiMP Installlation System) doesn't get updated often, here's the more current one:
