Details

When I install MozillaBuild 1.3, the installer pops up a dialog:

    Mozilla Build Setup

    This will delete everything in C:\mozilla-build.
    Do you want to continue?

    Yes     No

First, the installer should only pops up this dialog when the
directory C:\mozilla-build exists.

Second, the installer doesn't delete everything in
C:\mozilla-build.  I created a dummy file in C:\mozilla-build,
and it wasn't deleted by the installer.  It is more
accurate to say "overwrite" instead of "delete":

    This will overwrite everything in C:\mozilla-build.
    Do you want to continue?
I changed "delete" to "overwrite". I don't know much about NSIS, so anything more complicated than that doesn't seem like a good use of time.
