Hassle-free Install

[NewsBot]

I've got a program for users to download and install.* Currently I'm using a generic VS Install project.

 

Currently, the user has to:

1) click "Download"

2) Select "Run" or "Save As..."

3) Run/Open the installer

4) User has to confirm that they do, in fact want to run the program

5) Installer begins without prompt, but user must click "Finish" at the end of the process.

 

How can I improve this process (reduce required intervention)?* Is a single-click install even a possibility?

 

(If it helps, we can limit ourselves to IE7.)

 

Apologies for*the double-post to the JOS Dev board.* Sometimes urgency requires drastic measures!
