Description field of installer EXE is not terminated

When viewing the Windows Explorer properties of an installer (single file installer), the Description field is *much* longer than the actual text is. It appears that the field is not properly terminated.

I've verified this with IA7 Express. It also was this way in IA6 Express.

Could you please sent a sample project showing this, or the right steps to recreate it? I couldn't recreate this.

I've attached a screenshot to this forum posting from one of the many projects that exhibit this. This happens (for me) on every project I build. I'm using XP SP2 with IA7 Express Edition (licensed).

If you need the actual project file or IATest.exe setup package that I built, please send me an e-mail address that I should send it to. I'd rather not post it on the forums. Thanks.

Because of minority of severity, we won't be fixing this bug.
