does anyone know if there is a flag (as in /s after the winrar.exe) to stop it putting winrar in the start menu?

thanx Pthomas, but i already new this and do it that way...but i have been playing with my xp cd, and so far have been able to move all my file that go into my windows and directories withing windows by using the txtsetup file and putting them into my i386 folder, it all work very well.. even used makecab to compress all the files... now i'm wondering how the files are allocated to the program files dir from the i386 folder. all my reg setting are in the appropriate HIVE files...all drivers go into the driver cache dir. and all files associtated with my new theme's cursors and sounds, and other stuff, including install files, go into various dirs within C:\windows. my ultimate goal is to get rid of the $OEM$ folder all together, all thats left in there are the files that go into C:\Program files.

I was wondering if there was a way to make files using the txtsetup.txt go into the program files directory... i know an can make them go into any dir win the windows directory, but cant find a way of copying files from the i386 in program files. any help appreciated
