Lately, I've ran into an issue but I'm not sure what's causing it but, MPQDraft does not work for me anymore. It's Starcraft Self Executing Patcher does not boot Starcraft. I downloaded a mod from SEN called Demon Wars and apparently it works. So I'm assuming there's another 'better' program to create Starcraft Self Executing Patchers.
Where can I find these?

That mod's EXE was made with Firegraft, not MPQDraft, as evidenced by the edited Vulture minecount in one screenshot. Firegraft is a memory editor which produces EXEs which function just like a WinMPQ EXE, but have some extra functionality relating to memory editing. (Any serious modder in modern times relies heavily on this extra functionality.) Apparently older builds of Firegraft produce EXEs which do not run on Windows 7, but I've heard that more recent builds are compatible. I will run a check, please hold.

EDIT: PEAI works on Windows 7, at least. That mod was made with the most recent version of FG, so this says nothing about older mods.

Problem solved, much appreciated.

For MPQDraft, you do need to make sure you aren't using an old version. The official site for MPQDraft downloads is http://sourceforge.net/projects/mpqdraft/
