Using current Git, when the NBC Direct installer is run, it attempts to satisfy
certain prerequisites for NBC Direct, one of which is the Windows Installer
3.1. Due to bugs 5351 and 10698, the Windows Installer 3.1 redist cannot be
installed. The NBC Direct installer's requirement of installing Windows
Installer 3.1 seemingly shouldn't happen, since when unrelated application
Microsoft Dynamics GP demo (from http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/gp) is run,
it detects Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1 prerequisite as already installed.
No relevant output is noted.
