Q: 

Installer Stub for large file

We've got a large program to install (1Gb) packaged into an installer already. Is there any easy way to use a download manager to ensure that our clients can download without any issues.

I was thinking a simple stub that just downloads the file then executes once done.

A: 

There are various bootstrappers that support web downloads.

InstallShield

dotNetInstaller
