Hi guys!

 I was trying to uninstall WinHugs in order to install a newer version, and
 I found that the uninstaller.exe program doesn't work.

 I opened the uninstaller.exe with a hex editor, and I found that it's not
 a valid executable file. It's some weird combination of HTML and
 executable code. These are the first 15 lines of the uninstaller.exe file:

 {{{
 <html>
 <head>
 <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=Windows-1252">
 </head>
 <body>
 <pre>
 <table width=100% bgcolor=#CFCFE5><tr> <td> <font face=arial size=+3>
 Build Log
 </font></table><table width=* cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0><tr><td width=0
 bgcolor=#EDEDF5>&nbsp;</td><td width=0 bgcolor=#FFFFFF>&nbsp;</td><td
 width=*><pre>
 <h3>------- Build started: Project: Uninstaller, Configuration:
 Release|Win32 -------
 </h3>
 </pre></table><table width=100% bgcolor=#DFDFE5><tr><td><font face=arial
 size=+2>
 Command Lines
 </font></table><table width=* cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0><tr><td width=0
 bgcolor=#EDEDF5>&nbsp;</td><td width=0 bgcolor=#FFFFFF>&nbsp;</td><td
 width=*><pre>Uninstaller - up-to-date.</pre></table><table   width=100%
 height=20 bgcolor=#CFCFE5><tr><td><font face=arial size=+2>
 </font></table></body></html>
 }}}

 I hope this is not difficult to fix.

 Greetings,
