The download comes with a precompiled x86 assembly application that is just there to test the installation, when run, it's brings up a message box stating it was installed properly, source included.
One problem though, the script will also create a short cut on the desktop and a start menu entry with a link to uninstall, problem is I don't know how to have the script delete the lnk files and start menu entry, if someone can help, that'd be awesome!
Here's the full source with example script and application.
