Default Software for Distribution of XLAs

Does anyone know how I can distribute and XLA in an exe file. I came across:

http://www.wise.com/easyswitch.asp?bhcp=1

But the price is pretty steep. Are there any shareware or less expensive
programs available that will allow me to wrap my xla in an EXE file for easy
distribution?

Thanks

If you don't mind FREE then go to
www.clickteam.com
Install Creator
Might be overkill but it is nice

You could try Inno Setup -

but there's quite a learning curve.

If it's only an xla why not keep it simple and use a separate xls vba
install routine?
See Jan Karel Pieterse's tutorial and example
