A shortcut called "Drop File Here To Install Pre App" will be placed on your desktop.
Drop an IPK file over this shortcut to install the file to your Pre. (Ensure your Pre is in Developer mode)

Tested On:
======================
Windows 7 (64bit and 32bit)
Windows Vista (32bit) see known issues below.

Known Issues
======================
Java may not download if it is not installed. Softpedia seems to cache your visit so I don't think downloads will work. If anyone knows of a fixed location for Java or can host it please let me know.

For some reason you can't drop IPKS on to the created shortcut in Windows Vista. To resolve this delete the shorcut and create a shortcut as below...

64bit OS
STARTIN: "C:\Program Files (x86)\PreBrew\"
TARGET: "C:\Program Files (x86)\PreBrew\InstallApp.bat" %1

32bit OS
STARTIN: "C:\Program Files\PreBrew\"
TARGET: "C:\Program Files\PreBrew\InstallApp.bat" %1

Other Commands
======================
PreTool (installed to C:\Program Files\PreBrew (on 32bit Systems) or C:\Program Files (x86)\PreBrew (on 64bit Systems)) contains various command line options as shown below.
