[clamav-users] ClamAV for Win32 .msi question

Background:  Using ClamAV for Win32.  My usage has allowed me to use 
it without ever having to install it.  Instead I simply extracted the 
.msi.  Updates were done by replacing previous files with new ones.

The directory structure of the extracted .msi from the 
clamav-0.100.0-win-x86.zip file is different from previous versions.  
Gone is the \WIN directory, added is a clamav-0.100.0-x86.msi file 
which I fails to extract (using MSIEXEC).

Please let me know whether the missing .dll files normally packaged 
in a \WIN\SYSTEM directory is of consequence.

Also, do I need to be concerned with the clamav-0.100.0-x86.msi that 
is packaged inside of the clamav-0.100.0-x86.msi that was extracted 
from the downloaded .zip?

Thanks.
