InnoTools Downloader, recommended by the accepted answer, has not been updated since 2008. It does not work with Unicode version of Inno Setup (so it does not work with Unicode-only Inno Setup 6) and does not support HTTPS (among other). Do not use it.
Use Inno Setup 6.1 built-in support for downloads. See Install file from Internet in Inno Setup.
An old answer (before Inno Setup 6.1): I'm re-posting the answer by @Jens A. Koch, which has been deleted:
You might use the Inno Download Plugin by Mitrich Software.
- It's an Inno Setup script and DLL, which allows you to download files as part of your installation.
- It supports FTP, HTTP and HTTPS.
- It's kind of a drop-in replacement for InnoTools Downloader. Only few changes required.
- It brings a decent download display and HTTPS and Mirror(s) support.
There's also DwinsHs (Downloader for Inno Setup).
Take a look at the InnoTools Downloader (http://www.sherlocksoftware.org/page.php?id=50).
