Looks VERY good. Nice job.
Some comments:
* The readme.txt has LcdBible information rather than InstallManager.
* Should this be ver 1.5.9?
* What is the status of icudt##.dll ?
* In the "Help About" lower window, there is a sentence that starts
with:
"Thanx to God for His GREAT MERCY and LOVE:
Should this be "Thanks"?

A request: (may be outside scope of installer, but is related)
The code in SWMgr::findConfig was revised to look for ../library,
which is a welcome improvement. However, it would also helpful to have
it check for mods.d in ../The SWORD Project. This would facilitate
other "family apps" finding modules from upgrades to existing
installations. As it is now, the best "hold your nose" alternative is
to install in the same directory as BibleCS sword.exe
Scenario of upgrade to existing installation:
C:\Program Files\CrossWire\The SWORD Project\sword.exe
C:\Program Files\CrossWire\The SWORD Project\mod.s
C:\Program Files\CrossWire\The SWORD Project\modules
A "family app" in its own subdirectory could have a tough time finding
mods.d and modules if SWORD_PATH isn't set (but will the installer
always set SWORD_PATH?)
C:\Program Files\CrossWire\LcdBible\LcdBible.exe
Thanks.
