It's a pity that the MSI upgrade system is so sucky.. you have to do a
major upgrade by changing the product key, otherwise it puts up a dialog
box telling you to uninstall the previous version instead of doing the
upgrade.
I'll have to see if there's a way of writing the product key to a fixed
registry key.
