Hi:
I was using my computer and I saw a pop-up message from Malwarebytes about it blocking me from a malicous website. I did a search and found out the IP address that was trying to connect to my computer was from the Netherlands.
The connection attempt is outgoing. So does that mean it's some on my computer calling to the bad website?
I should also mention that yes I do have utorrent on my computer at this time but haven't used it since installing it(I did a test install of my own CAB creation of Utorrent first on a virtual PC and then on my "real computer" but haven't used it).
Any assistance would be very appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi:
Yesterday I was attempting to slipstream OnePiece_Windows_XP_Post-SP3_UpdatePack_v5.0.0_ENU. into my Windows XP Pro SP3 dics and everything seemed to be going fine until I got the following error messages. I guess I should mention that I was also attempting to integrate the onepiece_repair_ie8_cosmetic_problems_addon at the same time. Did that cause the problem?
I then download a fresh copy of One Pieces Post Update pack and then I attempted to install it just by itself, without the onepiece_repair_ie8_cosmetic_problems_addon. Just like before everything seemed to be going peachy and then I got this error message.
I also got a message from nlite about trying to correct the problem so I clicked yes and the integration finished. My question is will this integration be viable or should I just use a fresh installation and the integration process over?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi:
I don't know if this is the right forum but then again I'm talking about malware so it should be.
Just yesterday I downloaded some addons from ryanvm's site. The addons consisted of the following: Ad-aware95, Teamviewer, Firefox 6.02 & Firefox 7.0b6
I didn't think there were any problems because they got a good rating by Norton (no pop ups telling me that was a hidden virus etc or other concerns). So, of course I thought that everything was okay. Let me clarify I sometimes use a Sandboxed browser when I download and surf when I'm unsure about various websites or downloads. Some might say don't go to those bad websites and you don't have to worry about any viruses etc. right? Wrong. The problem is that some of the websites that you would never think have viruses do. Think back about those times you downloaded something from or visited a favorite and trusted website and the next thing you know and out of the blue your computer is acting up and you discover that you have a virus.
Well, as I said earlier I was very happy to find those addons on ryanvm's website and was looking forward to adding them to my new slipstreamed Windows XP Pro disc compilation. However, after dealing with a recent infection I tend to be cautious and so I decided to test my new addons via a Sandboxed environment. It's a good thing I did otherwise I could have had some problems down the road.
All of the above mentioned were flagged by Ad-aware as being infected with something called Trojan.win32.Generic.pak!cobra. I don't know what that is but I wasn't willing to take chances. Well, needless to say I was totally disgusted, I mean just imagine if I had integrated those addons into my slipstreamed Windows XP Pro disc. I would have been wondering why I kept getting infections although I was being super careful and then maybe reformating and have the same issue happen again and again. Thus, never realizing that the culprit was the slipstreamed OS disc itself.
I am in no way trying to defame ryanvm.com or any of the other persons that contribute to that site. As a matter of fact I think the culprit as far as the infected addons is due to the website were the addons were created which is http://www.isoft-online.com/ which is an SFX online creation site. That website has a very bad reputation from WOT and maybe from Norton too but unfortunately since upgrading to the new Firefox browser my Norton tools don't work within the browser.
I just want people to be VERY cautious and test their downloads in a controlled environment like Sandboxie etc. otherwise you could live to regret it over and over and over again. I for one will continue to test any and all addons that I haven't made myself. As for everyone else please use your own judgement.
P.S. The Firefox addon v716 maker had something called a Trojan dropper so now I'm back at the drawing board.(don't have pics as I was so digusted yet again that I deleted everything).
Just in case someone is interested in using SFXMaker 1.2 I found this

Glad you got it sorted but why not secure your OS from the get go? You can slipstream all the high-priority updates if you run my UDC script and add the resultant files to the Hotfix, Add-ons and Update Packs section of nLite.
There's 2 updates I haven't gotten to. Adobe Flash 10.3.183.10 and WindowsXP-KB2616676-v2-x86-ENU.exe (replaces WindowsXP-KB2524375-x86-ENU.exe, WindowsXP-KB2607712-x86-ENU.exe and WindowsXP-KB2616676-x86-ENU.exe)
Hi X:
It wasn't that my computer isn't secure it was just as I explained that when you give file or a folder etc. a name that is too long you will have issues with it. I guess that's just something that Microsoft overlooked or something as I was under the impression that you should be able to give your file etc. whatever name you wanted no matter how long it is but I guess that isn't the case.
Thanks for your information (link) I will most certainly use your script in the near future.

Is ati2cqag.dl_ in the driver folder?
Please attach your last session.ini.
Hi X:
Thank you for responding and here is the information you requested.Last Session 2.ini
I have figured out what the problem is.
The problem is that for whatever reason that whenever I give any folder a specific name that is too long it does something to the files inside; it locks them and then I can't delete them or sometimes it seems as if they aren't there at all which was the case with the ati2cqag.dl file in the Compaq ATI Radeon folder. Once I renamed the folder and gave it a shorter name the files became visible and I was able to add the drivers without a hitch.
Thanks again.

Hi:
I was in the middle of trying to slipstram Compaq drivers to my Windows XP SP3 when I got the following error message.
Why is this happening and how can I fix it.

So, are you saying that I might not need to install the drivers for my two IDE Controller cards? This is the link to the motherboard that I have My Motherboard. I don't understand half the stuff that's being explained but it sure sounds like it could be cool.
You'll need the drivers for the controller cards, but you'll only need to slipstream them if you're installing Windows to a drive connected to one of them. I'm saying that the motherboard's integrated SATA controller may not need drivers if you don't use RAID.
No, I won't be using RAID. No, my OS won't be installed on a harddrive connected to a IDE controller card. However, I need the controller card for my ATA storage drive as well as my two DVD-RW drives which aren't SATA but IDE too.
Yes, the finished CABs were used with nLite and yes I made them with the nLite Addon Maker.Manually creating addons with installers isn't difficult. The hardest part is determining which switches to use with the EXE. And the most tedious part is testing in a virtual machine. But I imagine it's the same when using an AddOn maker as well.
I use that software application called CMenu which works for the most part at letting me know who created the installer (Inno, NSIS etc.). Sometimes I have to do a search on the internet and that doesn't always help as you could see with the CAB files that I said didn't install.
Admittedly, I don't see any popups when getting files from MediaFire because I have had a paid account there for the past three years, but they didn't use annoying popups at all before then. It's one of the reasons I started hosting my files there. (All MediaFire downloads are direct links for me, and download links for my files are direct links for everybody.)
What I'm talking about when I say pop-ups is really a combination of things. Sometimes it's a pop-up and other times its a redirection to different website altogether but either way it's to a website that isn't good.
Who you choose to trust is always your own decision and ultimately your own responsibility. I can vouch for Kelsenellenelvian and believe him to be trustworthy. He is a longtime respected member here at MSFN (Developer), RyanVM.net (Moderator), WinCert (Global Moderator), and other related sites. A VirusTotal analysis of his site's URL (http://www.wpiw.net/) shows 15 out of 16 AV vendors give it a Clean rating, and is Unrated by the remainder. A VirusTotal scan of Java6u27_dual.exe shows one positive in scans from 43 individual popular virus scanning utilities, which leads me to believe it is a false positive. Java7_dual.exe is too large to be accepted by VirusTotal, but a scan by avast! AV on my PC shows it as clean.
Sadly I must be the 2 out of 43 person to have an infected download. I mean no disrespect to your friend I'm just telling you about what happend to me when I downloaded the Java 7 file from that website. The Java 6 file is in my Sandbox waiting to be removed but the Java 7 was totally deleted by Norton without any interaction from me after it informed me about the virus/trojan.
Just tried to download Java7_dual.exe from this website http://www.wincert.net/forum/index.php?/topic/8932-release-java6u27-7-silent-installers/ and had the same result.

I just download two files from RVM installer page RyanVM's forum"]My link. I download the two switchless Java installers by someone named Kelsenellenelvian. One was Java 6u27 dual installer and the other was Java 7 dual installer.
I got this alert from my Norton for both Java downloads(see below)and was sent to this IE page My link Which says that website where the file is hosted is high risk.
Okay I don't know what exactly a WS Reputation.1 virus is but I definitely don't want it so I don't think I will be using either Java installer. I will just have to do it the old fashioned way.

I believe ViewSonic's driver is only really needed for desktop publishing applications where color matching between screen and printer really matter—this is beyond my experience. A driver may also be necessary if the monitor has integrated USB ports.
Normally, I wouldn't mind the the generic plug and play driver but I will use the Viewsonic drivers as there are supposed to be some special features or something. No, the monitor doesn't have any USB ports it's just a very nice large wide-screen monitor which will help her see her desktop a lot better.
It looks like you've repackaged more software than I ever have. Just a couple questions: Were the finished CABs used with nLite? If so, did you CAB them yourself or use a program like Add-On Maker for nLite? You may be able to find AddOns for many common applications here on MSFN or on RyanVM's forum.
Yes, the finished CABs were used with nLite and yes I made them with the nLite Addon Maker. I know that you the MSFN site has links to already made CABs and I'm also aware of the winAddons.com website. The problem is that most of the addons are linked to Mediafire.com and I don't know about anyone else but everytime I went to Mediafire in the past I also ended up with a some kind of virus. Everytime I have go to Mediafire another pop up windows opens or trys to open and it's usually to a website that has a dangerous rating(I use the WOT; Web of Trust software app for both Firefox and IE). You know the type of websites that you always hear about that install viruses, trojans etc. without the unsuspecting vistor being aware of. It's a good thing that I installed Sandboxie and so when I'm not sure of a particular website I open my webbrowser Sandboxed so if there is something iffy going on at least I don't have to worry about it affecting my computer because it's contained inside the sandbox.
It may not be strictly necessary when using the SATA ports on the motherboard. Most motherboards have a legacy IDE detection mode for SATA that may or may not be toggled in the BIOS. No drivers would be needed in this case.
So, are you saying that I might not need to install the drivers for my two IDE Controller cards? This is the link to the motherboard that I have My Motherboard. I don't understand half the stuff that's being explained but it sure sounds like it could be cool.
You can sometimes get updated drivers from the website of the card manufacturer. Some research is needed.
As I said I know the name of one of the controller cards manufacturers...I think. I will go and look at both boxes again. It's a good thing that I keep my boxes.

Let's try to tackle these one at a time.
Bear in mind that virtual machine software like VMware and VirtualBox do not simulate the actual hardware in use on your PC; only a generic set of older hardware that is easily simulated like "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" and "Intel® 82371 AB/EB PCI Bus Master IDE Controller". Your slipstreamed drivers will not be needed or installed on the virtual machine unless you've slipstreamed the drivers for the specific hardware the VM simulates.
The virtual PC's don't simulate the actual hardware in use like we have on our PC?! I realize that the virtual PC was missing some of my actual stuff like my various USB drives(actually I only have four...two in the front and I think one in the back of the chasis whereas my sister's computer which is what I'm using now have three USB and also four SD slots...lucky her) but I was under the assumption that when I slipstreamed stuff that such as the drivers for the controller card that they would show up in the Virtual PC's Windows XP drivers folder in the system 32 or some other official sounding folder and now you tell me that isn't the case. Excuse me while I step outside to cuss like a sailor.
Okay...I'm back and I've calmed down.
I noticed when viewing the SB installation files while looking for the drivers that when you first open the folder you see a file called AUTORUN.INF. Can I install that via Nlite? If so would that file completely install the apps that I want? You might also notice the other folders (as if you would miss them) and I checked inside the AOD folder and it has a SETUP.INI file and some have setup.exe. Would I install the .ini and inf files from each indivdual folder and would that in turn install the software that I want? Also, is it possible to incorporate the setup.exe files into my slipstream disc and if so how would I go about it?The software itself could probably be installed, but not by pointing nLite at AUTORUN.INF or SETUP.INI. You mention having some experience in CAB making. What did you package and how did you use it? Please be specific. Assume I am a dummy (probably not far from the truth...
).Seraph...I hardly think you're a dummy. In fact you're a LOT smarter and certainly more knowledgeable than I am when it comes to computer stuff. Okay flattery aside you asked about my CAB making experience. Well, I wouldn't call myself an expert that's for dang sure. Let me tell you a little story about how I made a bunch of CAB files and each one was considerably larger than the other and I do mean large. The biggest was 240 MB's! I kept saying to myself what the hell is going on, why are my CAB files so dang big!
Well, I finally figured out what the problem was. Instead of taking the first piece of software that I was attempting to make into a CAB out of the "new folder" folder and putting aside into a separate folder I was leaving all the software in the "new folder" and thus each time I made a new CAB file not only was it taking on the size of itself but also of the other piece of software too. So, I finally figured it out after finding and watching a CAB making tutorial...again and paying better attention this time around. The software I made into CAB files are just regular pieces of software like Malwarebytes, Ccleaner, Faststone Image Viewer, DVD Shrink, CMenu, K-lite Codec Pack(should have used silent install because I didn't want Media Player Classic installed), 7-zip, Peerblock, Registry Mechanic, Revo, Utorrent, VMware, Winrar, Powertoys(desktop changer), Magic ISO Maker, MW Snap, Tuneup Utilities, Adobe Reader 10, Adobe Flash and Adobe Shockwave(worked the second time around) and Java.
The CAB files that didn't work ie install correctly were the Media Player 11, Ad-Aware 9, Firefox, Internet Explorer 8, Teamviewer, and Sandboxie 3.58.
I haven't attempted to make CAB files of the Viewsonic installer (that my sister needs as she purchased a new monitor). I'm not even sure which file I would use anyway...the setup.exe or just the drivers???
I also bought a [...] MSI P67A-C43 board which might not be a big deal to someone else with all the newer and better MB's out but is a very big upgrade for me since I will now be able to have 4GB's of memory etc.(doing a happy dance). Since this motherboard is a little more current would the MSI driver disc contain the control drivers that I had to slipstream install on for my old MB or should I still slipstream them regardless?It's better by far than my year old Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L. It's kept "current" by using it with an old Core 2 Quad and a Radeon HD 5830. It also supports 4GB, but no more than that. It is good enough for me and very stable.
I wasn't bragging about my board I am just so happy to have an upgrade from my old board. Can't recall the name right this second but it begins with and S. I got that board ie the system back in 2003. It was built at one of those computer expos and I paid a pretty penny for it too and didn't realize until much later that I wasn't given the best deal. By the by...the monitor was a totally seperate purchase from another vendor which added more onto my price. Oh well, you live and learn right?
You should only need to slipstream the drivers if Windows must have them to install Windows, such as those for the onboard storage controller if you enable RAID on the boot volume.
Yes, I will need both those controller cards because only two of my harddrives are SATA the other storage drive is ATA. As you know most new boards don't have the "old" ATA connections and it most certainly isn't available on the my new MSI board and that's why I wanted a board with PCI slots so I could connect the two controller cards. I want to slipstream them because I don't want to have to run upstairs and find all the driver discs and use them one at a time but instead want them to be already integrated.
I would try finding updated versions online instead of using the driver disc though.
Uh
....not to sound stupid or anything but where would I find updated drivers for my two controller cards? I'm not sure about the manufacturer. One might be made by a company called Syba but the other controller card doesn't seem to have any information on the box other than what type of card it is. You may also consider slipstreaming your network drivers, especially if you keep most of your files (like drivers and installers) on a NAS or another PC for safekeeping. That's how I avoid using a software disc such as the one you're using for your common applications. It saves me the cost and waste of burning unnecessary CDs if I can get to them on the LAN.
Network Drivers??? Are you referring to things like the controller card drivers? If not then you got some s'plaining to do because I don't have a clue. Seriously...I had to both LAN(Local Area Network) and NAS (Network-attached storage) because I hadn't a clue about what you were talking about. The only other NAS that I was familiar with is that rapper (laughing) and I didn't think you were referring to him when we are discussing computers and slipstreaming. Anyway, the only storage I have is the the two harddrives that I have; one I use for media only(video clips and music) and the other is used for files only.
See Attachment below and let me know if those are Network Drivers thingys what you're talking about and if so where can I get them OR if those things are slipstreamed into the latest updated Post SP3 addon pack on Ryanvm's site. Or are Network Drivers something totally separate altogether??? Do the latest Post SP3 addon pack by User Hidden etc integrate the Network Drivers you are talking about??? If so I was nterested in one by OnePiece because it integrates various .Net Frameworks until I read that integrating that might have some side effects.
All help is appreciated.

IJust went to RVM website and for the life of me I can't find the first page [...]
The first post is on the page I linked you to, which just happens to be the first page. Somehow you missed the word "Mirror" in both my reply and on the page. Here's an illustration:
Seraph:
You are correct that I didn't catch on to the "mirror" hint I only saw the first link etc. and that was it. I noticed the word "mirror" but assumed that the "name" of the application
and it was...the one that kept leading me to filesonic website etc. the problem was obviously that it just wasn't the right one. Thanks for your patience.
While I have your attention can you take a look at my other post...My other postno one has written me a reply yet and I really could use some help with how to proceed. If you can't help with that issue I understand.
Once again thanks for your help and patience

The best place to ask about boooggy's Windows Media Player 11 Slipstreamer is on his forum, but given the name I'd say it can't be done. And I'm afraid I've lost the old script he used to have for WMP10.
But XP x64 already includes WMP10.
If you want WMP10 for XP x86, YumeYao has the only AddOn I know that is up to date. But you'll need the RyanVM Integrator or nLite to use it.
Hi 5eraph:
I've some success with making cab files to a degree but some of them weren't installing for one reason or another and media player 10 was one of them. After doing a virtual install and seeing the icon on the desktop but getting this error message about how the system was looking for 9.0.0.... and how the files didn't match I assumed that the system was looking for media player 9 and that's why it wouldn't install right.
Thank you VERY much it's just what I was looking for.

Hi:
I am interested in slipstreaming Media Player 10(I don't like Media Player 11). Can I use the the slipstreamer software by Boooogy & n7Epsilon to slipstream media player 10 and just follow the same steps???

Hi:
I've tried my hand at slipstreaming and cab making and had some success after a bit.
I've slipstreamed SP3 into my Windows XP SP2 Pro with the following control card drivers:
1. PCI Ultra ATA Plus & Serial ATA Combo Controller Card
2. ULTRA ATA IDE 133 Controll Card Driver.
I slipstreamed those drivers on my motherboard because my main harddrive was an ATA but the Seagate storage drive was a SATA. I wanted those drivers to be already installed if I had to reformat the drive. I tested the slipstreamed disc via a vmware virtual pc and there weren't any problems installing it as far as I tell.(No error messages)
Bear with me on this I'm trying to be as clear as possible and word this in a way that both you and I won't be confused as heck.
Currently, I've made a disc (folder on my sister's computer) with all of the software apps & drivers that I would like to install on my sister's and my own PC via a slipstream disc. My question is this; I have a Creative Lab Sound Blaster card, nothing fancy just a lower end card one. Anyway, as I mentioned earlier I know a little about slipstreaming drivers but let's say that you would like to install more than just the drivers, that you would also like to install the application on the disc as well. Example: the creative lab SB card come with software that can optionally choose to install or not. I noticed when viewing the SB installation files while looking for the drivers that when you first open the folder you see a file called AUTORUN.INF. Can I install that via Nlite? If so would that file completely install the apps that I want? You might also notice the other folders (as if you would miss them) and I checked inside the AOD folder and it has a SETUP.INI file and some have setup.exe. Would I install the .ini and inf files from each indivdual folder and would that in turn install the software that I want? Also, is it possible to incorporate the setup.exe files into my slipstream disc and if so how would I go about it?
http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a159/lapetite66/SoundBlasterInstallFiles2-AODfolder25.jpg
I might also mention that the slipstream disc I made previously was for my old motherboard. My old harddrive died and with it the ability to use my computer and the SATA storage drive which was connected via the one of the controller cards. So, I had to buy a new harddrive and I also bought a new motherboard too. It is a MSI P67A-C43 board which might not be a big deal to someone else with all the newer and better MB's out but is a very big upgrade for me since I will now be able to have 4GB's of memory etc.(doing a happy dance). Since this motherboard is a little more current would the MSI driver disc contain the control drivers that I had to slipstream install on for my old MB or should I still slipstream them regardless?
I really hope that I haven't confused the heck out those interested in helping and would appreciate any help given.
Thanks,

It's such a shame because Amy was very talented.
I know the point is moot as of now since she is dead, but I wonder about the people in Amy's life. It seems to be the same old situation that the people surrounding her were more inclined to bask in her success but less inclined to encourage Amy to get the help she needed.
Yeah, I know that a person has to hit rock bottom and that person has to REALLY want to get help for themselves but were talking about someone in the throes of addiction. Some people can find the strength to ask for help but others need a big push. Personally, I think that if she had people in her life that really cared they would have insisted that she get help and maybe even taken drastic steps to insure that she got the help she needed.
I hope that Amy has finally found peace that she couldn't find in life.
Rest in Peace Amy.

Saint Tropez - Femmes Fatales
Hi 'dencorso
I listened to the St. Tropez - Femmes Fatales song and I liked it. I will be adding it to my collection. Tell me, is there a video to go with the song and if so can you provide a link to it.
Thanks,

I just finished listening to Trage`die - Je Reste Ghetto. I don't understand a word their saying as the song is in French but DAM love it anyway! I first heard the song on the Ong Bak dvd(the special features) and fell in love with it. I had a hard time trying to find because it wasn't American but I found it and it's been a part of my MP3 collection ever since.
Some of the songs I listened to before Trage`die are:
Moby - One of These Mornings
Oldies - Mickey & Sylvia - Love is Strange
New Radicals - You Get What You Give
Oldies - Ottis Redding - These Arms of Mine
Nine Inch Nails - Closer
Micheal Jackson - Liberian Girl
Johnny Hates Jazz - Shattered Dreams
Jon B. & Tupac - Are You Still Down
Grace Potter & The Nocturnals - Apologies
Foo Fighters - Everlong
Chris Cornell - Scream(yes, I love this song AND his original rock songs too)
Brooks & Dunne - Red Dirt Road
As you can tell I have a eclectic taste in music.

Why do you want to use a 2 year old update pack? XP will be insecure out of the box and you will need to run Windows Update to secure it. I recommend using an up to date update pack( xable has a good one: http://xable.net/xp-sp3-update-pack-download.html) or add the updates individually by using the UDC tool on my site to download the needed updates: http://xdot.tk/updates.html
As far as your Firefox add-on, it throws up an error when you try to run the executable. That's why it's not working. This might be due to spaces in the filenames. Try removing them.
Also inside the add-on there are 2 setups. One for FF 3.6 and one for FF 4.
How did you make this executable in the add-on?
Hi X:
As I stated before I’m new at this slipstreaming etc. as for me attempting to use Ryan’s update pack that is the first one I came across that had a ton of updates that would allow me to do everything in one shot as opposed to me having to download and manually install a ton of updates one at a time. From the name I was under the impression that RyanVM Windows XP Post-SP3 Update Pack v1.03 were updates that were to be added AFTER you had already added SP3 which I had done already. However, I guess I was wrong so thank you for the link to a more current pack which I will download and test out.
I did try make a cab file and install Firefox 3.6 and when that didn’t work I tried with version 4.0 to. As for how both Firefox versions ended up inside one cab file, I don’t have a clue. Wait a minute…maybe it has something to do with me not closing the Nlite Addon maker in between making cab files??? Ooops!
Also, you mentioned something about the name of the cab file? Well, the –ms wasn’t part of the file name. The –ms was something I found on the net that was supposed to allow me to silently install that version of Firefox as the my nlite-addon maker only has Firefox .08 in it’s installer database.
I took your advice and took out the spaces in the name and I was able to do a silent install. Thank you VERY much! FYI the -ms code or whatever you want to call it actually works...after I took out the spaces in the name. *doing a happy dance*
:) Here’s a link some information how to silently install Firefox 4 in various ways. Please know that I don’t know how accurate they are so just be aware.

I thought Ryan stopped making updates packs? There are others one his site though. They should all integrate just fine with nLite. Can you post a link to the update pack that you used?
Upload one of the add-ons you made somewhere (like Mediafire) and I'll have a look at it.
Also, please attach your last session.ini.
Note to mods: Please move to nLite forum.
Hi –X-
I sorry for the confusion I said I was new at trying my hand at slipstreaming and integrating etc. not that the update pack was.
The Ryan update pack I’m referring to isn’t new, it was made around 2009. Here is the link where I downloaded it http://integrator.siginetsoftware.com/index.php?download It’s the RyanVM Windows XP Post-SP3 Update Pack v1.03
Here's the mediafire link http://www.mediafire.com/?74a341vzqe7pwkp

Hi:
I don't know if this is the right section for this topic but here goes nothing...
I am a newbie when it comes to slipstreaming etc. I have done a test run using a virtual machine, God, I love virtual machines and wish I knew about them a long time ago as they would have save me a lot of time and trouble not to mention virus issues. Anyway, I did a trial run using nlite and managed to add some drivers and SP3 and both of those installed correctly. I then tried to incorporate RVMUpdatePackSP3_1.0.3.7z and from what I could see it didn't take. I thought that I could use the nlite to add the RVMUpdate pack but wonder if I'm wrong? Do I have to use Ryan's integrator software instead?
Also, while I have your attention I am also having problems using integrating the files I made with the nlite addon maker. Making the cab files isn't a problem, the problem comes in when I try to incorporate them into My slipstreamed XP Pro Driver SP3 disc they aren't showing up! What am I doing wrong???

Hello everyone:
I'm new to the forum(becoming a member) but I actually found this forum by accident a couple of weeks back.
I was looking for information about slipstreaming ie integrating software into my Windows XP SP2 disc.
I have managed to do a little but the more I know the better disc I can make. I'm looking forward to learning all I can from all the people who know a LOT more than I do.

Well, I finally figured out what the problem was. Instead of taking the first piece of software that I was attempting to make into a CAB out of the "new folder" folder and putting aside into a separate folder I was leaving all the software in the "new folder" and thus each time I made a new CAB file not only was it taking on the size of itself but also of the other piece of software too. So, I finally figured it out after finding and watching a CAB making tutorial...again and paying better attention this time around. 
....not to sound stupid or anything but where would I find updated drivers for my two controller cards? I'm not sure about the manufacturer. One might be made by a company called Syba but the other controller card doesn't seem to have any information on the box other than what type of card it is. 
and it was...the one that kept leading me to filesonic website etc. the problem was obviously that it just wasn't the right one.

Hi Tarun:
Norton is not the anti-virus software that notified me of the problem it was Ad-aware Internet security. See my Posted 24 September 2011 - 02:32 PM.
Today I used Virus Total here are the resultsVirus Total Results
I will guess that Ad-aware was wrong and that this was a false positive. As I said before I wasn't trying to defame anyone I was just going by what results that I got from Ad-aware. I still feel that it's better to be safe than sorry as well as using your own judgement.
Thanks,
