*** Success! I made an .msi file and installed it on my computer on the first try! It installs into the 'Program Files' directory and adds an item to the Start menu
** Solved: Files in the .jar file don't need to be taken out of the archive for the program to work, which won't create a problem when installing

** Decided to use C# to generate the XML file and passes it to WiX for packaging
** Began coding a command-line based program, which will take one arguments as the root directory of a XULRunner application, and generate an XML file for WiX
*** Using the sample WiX application, I was able to generate the .wxs XML file, and using WiX manually generate a working .msi
** Created a recursive algorithm to get all files and sub-directories of a XULRunner application
*** Problem: I have no problem getting the all the files and sub-directories, the problem is adding them to the XML file in the correct structure which they came from

** Working on structure problem, can only get the files and directories to be added one level deep in the XML file
* October 16, 2008
** Working Solution: Using the Stack I am able to get 2 levels deep, it will work for basic XULRunner applications
