Ugh, we have few Windows users, and apparently all of them use remote-viewer. It's good you try on Windows 8 too :) It's weird that there are no entries in machine menu (you mean the start menu right? I thought it was gone in Win8, perhaps there is a different mechanism now), I will have to take a look.

The MSI build is relatively new, and we don't have good means to generate dependencies automatically, which is a PITA. So thanks for the reminder, we should address that. (I am afraid it will be hard to push the required changes atm). In the meantime, you could try with the missing dlls from f19 (I copied x64 version here http://elmarco.fedorapeople.org/libssp-0.dll, hopefully it's enough)
