Nightlies and Milestone should NOT have the same entry under Control Panel -
Add/Remove Programs (can then only uninstall the last installed).

They overwrite each other during installation :(

Suggest to call:
- milestones: Mozilla Milestone (0.9.1)
- nightlies:  Mozilla Nightly Build (0.9.1)
BTW, the reason this is needed is beicause I (and I suspect many others) install
the milestones to one directory as a backup, and the nightlies to another
directory for daily use. 

Therefore the two separate installations need to retain separate entries in the
Windoze control panel add/remove programs list.
Then the installer should also tell the user what he's installing:

"You are about to install:"
Mozilla Milestone (0.9.1)
or
Mozilla Nightly Build (0.9.1)
