Ok, I tried a different approach: just try this demo app

http://www.dreadsoft.org/php-gtk/demoapplication.zip (less than 90 KB)

source script here

http://www.dreadsoft.org/php-gtk/piggie.zip (2 KB)

once launched, the installer looks for php-gtk installations (searching 
php-gtk2.dll)

If not found will ask to download it.
