Comment (by arma):

 Is it crazy to offer a zip file too? If I were a Windows user I'd be
 happier using a zip file than I would be letting an arbitrary huge blob do
 arbitrary things on my computer, no matter how much the website assured me
 that it wouldn't.

 (That said, as soon as they've unzipped it they would then run the next
 huge arbitrary blob; so maybe providing a zip file is more trouble than
 it's worth.)
