Hey echap - anything new on updates?

What is ths adt.xpi for? Just for those interested Firefox 1.5 CCK (Client Customization Kit) - Similar to IEAK. Personally i prefere SOF - but just to give people more options

New version of SOF has been released and works correctly with FF 1.5 thread here

Ok have been doing some more testing. What i have found is that sof.exe does copy all the searchplugins from ProgramFiles\mozilla firefox\searchplugins but does not from username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxx\searchplugins Not a big deal - just wanted to let you know as it seem to be a little bug to me Excellent Tip!

New mirror for the latest version available here. Yes it does if you manually copy it... just thought i would let you know in case you wanted to update the builder. I have just checked with the lastest archive you have made available - still requires manual copy of "Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxx\searchplugins" Feel free to add my mirror to your available download list. and i will keep it up-to-date also.

IE View 1.2.7 - I have tested and it runs FlashGot 0.5.9.9.8 - I have tested and it runs Fasterfox 0.8.1 - I have tested and it runs

Ok have been doing some testing - all is working as it should now except for the toolbar customizations. Also currently any additional "SearchPlugins" are not being copied to the project directory or being installed. Also i have added the new install.exe file to the orginal zip file replacing the old one and added another mirror to show my support. please feel free to update your first post with this mirror. sof_ff150.zip

any advancement on the XPLode output functionality?

well vista comes to mind

is there a way to move the 5 tasks (located down the left side) down a little to allow for 2 or three lines of text with this tool? Also i have a suggestion for the tool; It would be great if you could save your template or preferences - that way if MS do updates that effect the .dll files, then you could simply load the editor and then apply your template/preferences to the .dll's again and save. Would be very handy

The Trial and Upgrade versions are exactly the same. The only difference is if you choose to include the Yahoo Toolbar (adds about 4mb to the file size). I have tested both files - they are exactly the same.

Hi Mad Guy, Excellent little application and very, very helpful - thankyou! I have a suggestion for you - do you think you can put a similar application together to edit the loginui.exe file? BTW i will putting a mirror in on my site this week for this tool to show my support

I have purchased a copy and spoken to the author of XPLode and he claims this is not done with his product. If you know a way to do that, please let me know.

Hi there all, Can WPI integrate into the windows installation installer as seen in this image i found in another thread...

hi enchap, I have a new suggestion for you - can you add a xml output that will work with XPlode? That would be very helpful

[quote name='eagle00789' post='169980' date='Aug 17 2004, 10:00 PM']Thx, but i'm happy do create it. i have no use for it anymore, because i already switched to xplode (for wich i'm going to create an xml-writer program)[/quote] Hey Eagle, Any news on your xml-writer to work with xplode yet?

Good idea. And yes you can edit alot of the options in the text file. If you need somewhere to host it let me know - happy to put it on my webserver for everyone.

Hi All, In light of information generally reported in the IT media today about service pack 3 for Windows XP, i thought this information may be of use to everyone... I certainly found it time saving. And of course don't forget that RyanVM does a fantastic job with his pack... http://ryanvm.msfn.org/ Below is a link to a package of hotfixes that will possibly be in SP3. It's completely unofficial from Microsoft and is just a collection of fixes said to be in SP3 at some point. Let me make it clear that it is NOT Service Pack 3, but rather just fixes that will probably go into the official package from Microsoft when they start building SP3. ** USE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND ONLY IF YOU ARE A WINDOWS EXPERT ** http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/OS-Enh...3-Preview.shtml More information at: http://www.s.p.a.m.net/sp3.html

Hi People, This is an interesting thread and something that i will try out, as another option, i wrote a guide sometime ago specifically for using the Quicklaunch features, feel free to have a look and see what you think. Customizing the Default User Profile : Enabling the Quick Launch Toolbar

Hi there, Yes i did look atht e installer closely and can see you can add to the installer... however if you use a reg file, personally i think it is simpler to maintain - just a personal preference and only a suggestion. Your solution has come along way since you began - very impressive! I like your work. I wasn't having a shot at you - just making a friendly suggestion. Of course i can make the changes to suit my preferences, but thought some of the other users may like the option of the reg file.

@vcBlackBox Can i make a suggestion? instead of adding the serial number on the command line, i would like to suggest using a reg file. this way you can add your name and company PLUS the best thing about using a reg file is that you can tweak the post installation further. eg below. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ahead\Nero - Burning Rom\Info] "User"="Your Name" "Company"="Your Business Name" "Serial6"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ahead\NeroVision\Info] "User"="Your Name" "Company"="Your Business Name" "Serial6"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ahead\NeroMediaPlayer\Info] "User"="Your Name" "Company"="Your Business Name" "Serial6"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ahead\NeroMix\Info] "User"="Your Name" "Company"="Your Business Name" "Serial6"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ahead\shared] "NeroDriverComponent"=dword:000003e8 "NeroCheckComponent"=dword:000003e8 "CoverDesignerComponent"=dword:000003e8 "ShortCutDLLLang"="ENG" "AutoPlayHandlersEnabled"=dword:00000000 "ResourceCounter"=dword:00000000 ; tweaks ;----- ;----- Overburning for DVD to 4600MB and CD to 92min ;----- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Ahead\Nero - Burning Rom\General] "EnableDVDOverSize"=dword:00000001 "MaxDVDOverSizeBlocks"=dword:0023f000 "EnableDAOOverSize"=dword:00000001 "MaxOverSizeBlocks"=dword:00065130 ;----- ;----- Dont eject CD after burning ;----- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Ahead\Nero - Burning Rom\General] "EjectTheCDLater"=dword:00000001 ;----- ;----- Show the real CD-recording speed in Nero (example: 21.6x writing speed) ;----- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ahead\Nero - Burning Rom\Recorder] "ShowSingleRecorderSpeed"=dword:00000001 ;----- ;----- Short Lead-Out ;----- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ahead\Nero - Burning Rom\Recorder] "ShortLeadOut"=dword:00000177 ;----- ;----- Remove Nero from Run ;----- [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] "NeroCheck"=- "NeroFilterCheck"=- ;Disable AutoStarting When Blank CD is Loaded. [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ahead\InCD] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\EventHandlers\HandleCDBurningOnArrival] "NeroAutoPlayEmptyCD" = - [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\Handlers\NeroAutoPlayEmptyCD] ;Disable Startsmart [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ahead\Nero StartSmart\Settings] "AdvancedMode"=dword:00000000 "DisplayLeftPanel"=dword:00000000 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ahead\Nero StartSmart\Defaults] "1"=dword:00000000

Ok what is the same of your nero*.* files and have you setup the right configuration in the makeit.cmd file?

manual > How to 1. Extract the contents of the Nero_Custom_Installer_Creator.rar to the same directory as you have saved your Nero-*.exe and (if you are using it) NVE-*.exe. NB The filenames of the source files downloaded from Nero should not be changed as they script looks for the “Nero-*.exe” and “NVE-*.exe”. 2. You will need to edit the register.reg file. The main things to edit are as follows: "User"="Nero User" "Company"="Nero AG" "Serial6"="XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX" a. Change Nero User to Your Name. b. Change Nero AG to Your Company/Business Name. c. Insert your serial number replacing the X’s. d. Add/remove any additional registry tweaks. 3. Edit the !MakeIt.cmd file variables to suit your requirements. Make sure the rarPath and zipPath are set correctly. You are not required to have both installed. If you do not have one or the other installed just leave the default setting. See Explanation of !Makeit.cmd User Configuration Variables for more information. 4. Edit the post_config.cmd file variable to suit your requirements. There is only two variable here – the name of the Folder you want your shortcuts to be presented in and enable/disable Quick launch shortcuts. See Explanation of post_config.cmd User Configuration Variables for more information. 5. Now you are ready to run !MakeIt.cmd. Command line usage: !Makeit.cmd [/?] [/rar] [/7zip] [/nr] /H - This information. /RAR - Use WinRAR for creating the custom nero installation archive. /7ZIP - Use 7-zip for creating the custom nero installation archive. /NR - Make custom installer for Nero Burning ROM Only. The /RAR or 7ZIP options are override options for the default archive utility that you have specified when you have edited the !MakeIt.cmd file (step 2). The /NR options simply removes everything accept for the common files, and Nero Burning ROM. 5. You have now completed the creation of your custom installer.

What version of 7-zip do you have installed? If it is the latest (4.20) this maybe what is causing your problem. There is a known issue with the latest version of 7-zip and vcBlackBox is working on updates currently. Stay tuned.
