Windows Installer Vs. ClickOnce

I am making a VB 2005 app, and I have another installation question.
:-)

Have you ever had to use the windows installer instead of clickonce
installation? I read an article that says you have to use the windows
installer when you have a "complex" installation.

What does that mean? Specifically, what type of complexities would
force you to use the windows installer instead of ClickOnce?

Code access security is something to consider. Despite whatever
frustrated developers trying to use one click deploy tell you, CAS is a
feature, not a complexity! :)
