Tool name: InstallShield (by one exe-file) Unpacker

Description: This tool unpacks two of three known forms of InstallShield Self-Extracting .EXE-files (like 3DMark03.exe).

First form is All-in-One. All files are stored one by one in IS-exe-container like this:
___________
data1.hdr
data1.cab
data2.cab
engine32.cab
layout.bin
setup.exe
setup.ini
setup.boot
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Second form is All-in-CAB. All files are stored in simple
Microsoft Cabinet File (*.cab) in IS-exe.

Third form is too hard for me to understand, but it's a All-in-MSI (with some files to run *.msi like setup.ini and so on). There are a litte bit of encryption (or compression?) in exe-file. But after you run IS-exe-file you can see in WinDir's Temp folder unpacked *.Msi-file (Microsoft Installer) and you can dig it on your own ;)
