@liz -

My guess is you are going with MSI because it is native to Windows and (unfortunately) the world is currently dominated by Bill and the Gang.  (hugs her mac)

Here are a couple resources I found:

http://4sysops.com/archives/msi-packager-list-tools-to-create-windows-installer-packages/
http://www.advancedinstaller.com/
http://www.freedownloadscenter.com/Best/create-msi-free.html

I've only used the MSI -> exe converter in the past so I can't vouch for a particular program but they look pretty good.
