Have a look at Inno Setup. Free installer for Windows programs.
See http://www.jrsoftware.org
I have used this for many projects, and so does a lot of others.

Hi,
I'm asking because in some versions there is a setup & deployment project build in.
In VB.Net 2010 you can find that project in:
File -> New project -> Other project types -> setup and Deployment -> make your selection
Grtz,

As an alternative to Inno Setup, I'd also recommend WiX. That's what we use at my consulting company in place of the Visual Studio setup project, which has given us trouble in the past, and it's proven quite versatile and powerful (if a little obtuse initially).
Also note that if you're using the Express versions of Visual Studio, the setup and deployment templates are not included out of the box.
