Hmm, the setup program (.exe which runs an .msi) installs a classic 
"annoying" developpement app (the other day it was some Microsoft Office 
suite product). I doubt it would launch WMP for any reason, if it's what you 
meant.
To get rid of the doubt, I just retried the installation process being 
logged in as Admin, and nope, it didn't launch WMP.

Best regards,
