Creating a Visual Studio Style Installer

I am trying to figure out how to create an installer that looks and behaves like the VS2008 installer. Does anyone know that they use MS, and is there something similar for public consumption?

Like Adrien, I read somewhere (one of the developers of the VS installer) that the external interface is actually a normal application, and then runs several MSI (wix built) installers for the components / prerequisites.

There are sample project code showing how to create .net installers.

Try InstallAware. While their price is pretty prohibitive, it can easily do what you are looking for. I personally do not use it because it does not support individual branding ... You see "InstallAware" everywhere. But overall, a great application for creating settings.
