For Professional : Installshield

For Free : There is provision for creating setup project in VS itself. Or try the ones suggested avobe.

You may try these. Really easy. Use the Wizard. Inno Setup Downloads

You can use InstallShield wizard, or use SFX scripting to generating exe files that will do thw work of installers. 7z SFX Builder is a good GUI tool for building SFX file, you can get a copy from here *sourceforge.net/projects/s-zipsfxbuilder/
