You can launch an application in the background (so InstallBuilder will not wait for it to finish) by adding & as the final argument of the action. If you edit the XML file directly, remember that & needs to be escaped as &. For example:
<finalPageActionList> <runProgram> <program>${installdir}/bin/myapp</program> <programArguments>&</programArguments> <progressText>Do you want to launch ${product_fullname} now?</progressText> </runProgram> </finalPageActionList>
