"not correctly handled" is a hard word. The script just expects stuff to 
be installed in the default PROGRAM_FILES location. I don't see a good 
solution to this, as you can easily mix 32 and 64 bit versions of 
programs here - so I don't see a good way to find the right location 
with a script.

That explains your problems here. So unless someone comes up with a good 
solution to handle the x64 systems, we might have to live with this problem.

BTW: Using vcredist also has it's problems, namely getting an ugly 
Microsoft dialog while installing Wireshark ...
