I have no idea.  Some of the above files are not even installed by setup.

When I asked "did you see it installing a number of packages" I was sort
of hoping that you would list the packages that were installed, i.e., what
setup reports it is installing.

All that you should have to do is run setup, hit enter once, choose an
ftp site, and hit enter again.

setup produces a .log file which shows everything that it installed.  What
does that contain?

full.exe contains a 1.5 year old version of the product.  If you found it
on a mirror site then the mirror site is not mirroring too well.
