I discovered that on a Windows XP if you remove the old Windows Messenger that came with the OS using:
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove
after running 'WLM9 Switchless.exe' you will get an error saying that it is looking for 'wlm.msi' in the temp directory. I have found that if you run the command to remove the old version first then run 'WLM9 Switchless.exe' you will not get the error.

Since I dont foresee having highspeed internet access soon I have created transform files for others to use and apply and even distribute thier results. These transform files CANNOT be successfully applied using orca. Installshield is required.
The person who is able to successfully apply the transforms file and redistribute the results to the satisfaction of users can also take over these releases in the future.
I used your transform to create a modified msi. What do you typically do to create the exe you distribute?

What switches do I need to use to do a silent uninstall? I tried the following command but it prompted me for remove or repair:

When I install 'WLM9 Requisites Switchless' it adds 'Windows Live Call Beta' to the Program Files menu. Is it really a beta or the release version?
