SIW is a stand-alone utility that you don't need to install, it'll run directly from a USB flash drive, a floppy (if you still have one), a rescue CD, or a network drive .

It'll also give you a list of regional settings or scheduled tasks, which DLLs are loaded or shared, which video and audio codecs you have installed and details on your network/open ports .

NOTICE: Uncheck the Add Crawler Toolbar (IE and Firefox) box during the installation, SIW will automatically install that toolbar and make it your default search provider .
