You could make it into a msi file. Microsoft provides tools to do this if you've got Visual Studio.

You need to get an installer, or write your own installer... using MS's installer or the installer that WinAmp distributes freely will both work and using one of them is MUCh eaiser than writing your own.

You than need to figure out what files need to be distirbuted, this can be a bit tricky if your project depends on any external DLLs or OCX objects... the best way to figure this out is to try to run the program on a bare Windows installation, it will tell you what files it needs if any are missing, write down the required files and include them in your disitribution.

Compile your installation package and away you go.
