I am sorry for assuming that you were the author as well, it gets confusing sometimes when we have folks releasing their own stuff as well as releasing info for the stuff that they found on the net. So, let me thank you for releasing the info and Dino Nuhagic (nuhi) for releasing this util.

But my original nitpick remains valid, even with the reduced (separated files) from the .NET 1.1 runtime it amounts to about 4MB of additional stuff. This is primarily due to the developer using C# for writing this util. Had he used C/C++/Delphi he could have easily cut down the size requirement to below 1MB. It is also ironic in the sense that a util that promotes a slim installation would use fat developer tools.

By reading the developer's comments on his web site it is apparent that many people have pestered him on this runtime issue (like me). And I don't want to trouble someone who appears to be making an effort to help others.

So, please regard my comments as constructive criticism.
