"Launchy is running" detection is over-eager

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I renamed the installer from "PuTTY-Plugin-v2.2.exe" to
"Launchy-PuTTY-Plugin-v2.2.exe" (so that I could remember, later, what it
really was).  Doing so makes the NSIS line "Processes::FindProcess
"Launchy"" find the installer itself, and never allow installation.

Good find!  Unfortunately, this is a bug with the NSIS installer plugin
(http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Processes_plug-in).  It hasn't been updated since 
2005,
so I think I'm out of luck there.  I'm going to need to find another plugin 
which
performs the same function (properly!).

... and it looks like http://nsis.sourceforge.net/NsProcess_plugin will work,
providing it isn't over-eager as well.

Looking for "launchy.exe" rather than just "launchy" might help.  Also, I've 
used
NSProcess in the past with good results:

Updated the installer for v2.2 to use nsProcess.  Also added an "Ignore" option 
in
case something funky like this were to happen in the future.
