Penfriend XL and XP use Windows Installer to support easy, familiar installation and removal. However, you will need to have Windows Installer itself. If you are not sure, try downloading the Penfriend files and double clicking on them. If you see a message asking which application to use to open the file then cancel it, download Windows Installer (from this page), install that, then double click on the Penfriend file again. Do not install Windows Installer if you already have it!
