You can actually set NSIS to UPX-pack its stub, if you're so inclined, but the stub is pretty small already.



This isn't what I meant. If you try to run UPX on someones NSIS installer the resulting file will fail to launch.


When I first found upx I did this a couple of times only to fail pretty badly and then I stopped doing it. This was like 7-8 years ago when I first tried the portable version. Never found the cause till today.
