The pic was on his/her (lol) website for a long time, right ? and nobody noticed ? humm.... I dont believe Gosh is a girl. but who cares ? Gosh's been doing a lot for the community ! ^_^

As I said It's updated every week And it comes with an uninstall version in a reg file.

I dont know if you guys have already given this website somewhere else in the MSFN forums : http://www.spywareguide.com/blockfile.php It's a very convenient registry tweak that blocks ALL the known crappy spyware that are installed while using Internet Explorer because of the activeX flaw. It also blocks the spy which are already on your hard drive ! The file is updated several times a month. I think it's a good idea to include it in our unattend CD. Apart of the hotfixes, I havent seen that much things on how to increase the security of Windows with an unattended install....

install.cmd set _USER=Squall net user %_USER% "" /add >nul net localgroup administrators "%_USER%" /add>nul %SystemRoot%\system32\reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v "DefaultUserName" /d "%_USER%" /f %SystemRoot%\system32\reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v "DefaultUserPassword" /d "" /f %SystemRoot%\system32\reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v "AutoAdminLogon" /d "1" /f cmdlines.txt [COMMANDS] ".\installs.cmd" And everything under $OEM$. NB: someone of the forum did this for me, I'm sure you guys can find the thread

After the scan SFC, has any dll files been modified ? If you scan again, what happens ? Maybe SFC dont recognize the dll files in XP...

did you modify any DLL files such as uxtheme ou sfc_os ?

Salut En fait c'est simple, tu laisses toujours les 6 premiers caractères de ton fichier ensuite tu rajoutes ~1 puis l'extension (.jpg) qui doit être de 3 caractères et non 2. Ainsi msnforum.bmp devient msnfor~1.bmp D'ou le terme 8.3 : 8 lettres avant et 3 après.

Why dont u burn 400mb on two Mini-CDRW ? In your pocket you wont make the difference.

I know, and this command was for you.

oh man ! This popup after unregistering the dll was so annoying ! THANX. My USB modem is not connected when I install XP...

Allright I have to rewrite what I said in the deleted copy of this thread... I think we can use the command "shutdown /a" at the beginning of the batch file to get rid of the reboot caused by msblast (as soon as you are connected to the net). I just have to find out the switch to reactivate the shutdown right before the end of the batch. And the command to disable XP spyware is : If it may help anyone here is my batch file. I'm using a couple of things found by Numinous :

I'm sad to hear you're leaving the forums. I still think this tiny incident was nothing compared to all the relevant tips you brought to the community. I respect your decision but hope you can change your mind.

I read on MS website that "type 2 hotfixes" cant be uninstall.... You see entries for ALL the type 2 hotfixes ?

Done ! Thanx Numinous. New version, here you go : CLS @echo off echo Eject the XP CD right now ! PAUSE echo. echo Removing zip support... regsvr32.exe -u %systemroot%\system32\zipfldr.dll echo. echo Removing XP spyware... regsvr32.exe -u %systemroot%\system32\regwizc.dll echo. echo Applying Registry Tweaks... regedit.exe /s %systemdrive%\Install\registry.reg echo. echo Installing Winrar 3.1b5 start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\wrar31b5.exe /silent copy "%systemdrive%\Install\RARREG.KEY" "%systemdrive%\program files\WinRAR\" echo. echo Installing DirectX 9.0b... start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\dxsetup.exe /windowsupdate echo. echo Applying Update Rollup 1... start /wait %systemdrive%\hotfixes\KB826939.exe /u /q /z /n echo Applying SP2 hotfixes... for %%i in (%systemdrive%\hotfixes\1\*.exe) do start /wait %%i /u /q /z /n for %%i in (%systemdrive%\hotfixes\2\*.exe) do start /wait %%i /q:a /r:n echo Applying others hotfixes... start /wait %systemdrive%\hotfixes\KBMDAC.exe /q /c:"dahotfix /q /n" start /wait %systemdrive%\hotfixes\Qchain.exe echo Installation complete.

Numinous >> so after SP1a + rollup you must install : Hotfixes 1 KB823182 KB824105 KB824141 KB825119 KB828035 Hotfixes 2 js56nen.exe Q330994 Q828750. Q823718 (with /C:"dahotfix /q /n" /Q) But what is 824105 ? is for SP1 and not SP1a ? Is there another "SP1 specific" hotfix we need to include ?

Is anyone know what are the hotfixes we need to apply if the rollup package is already installed ? is it the ones you put on the first post, numinous ?

Numinous >> thanx, I spent a lot of time working on a very simple batch ^^

It is not faster, it is easier to create and to update. To make sure everything's ok. And in the near future, new bloddy hotfixes will come up...

with a ghost ?

Gosh >> IMHO it's the easiest way to install a splitreamed XP with all the hotfixes. The batch file and the .sif file are made, no need to change it everytime a new hotfix comes up. The only thing you have to do is placed the new hotfix in the appropirate folder (install/hotfixes1, install/hotfixes2, etc). Now that there's a rollup package, you also need to delete the previous hotfixes covered by the rollup update. But that's all. Well, I like to do everything with the GuiRunAtonce section : applying a reg file, installing appz and hotfixes and finally removing the useless folders. If it might help anyone, here is my two batch files called by GuiRunAtonce : Edited on 19/10 at 3pm GMT after the topic was re-opened CLS @echo off MODE CON COLS=80 LINES=40 COLOR 0B TITLE Updating and tweaking Windows XP SP1 echo Post-installation program starting echo Eject the XP CD right now !

thanx willpantin ! Me too I thought of replacing the default wallpaper, but I didnt know where to find it ^_^

anybody ?

I also have a custom theme (msstytle etc) and 4 DLL files + explorer.exe Which way is the best to include it on my CD ? - from the batch file of GuiRunOnce - putting all the files under $OEM/$1/$$/system32 + copying the theme folder (I dont know how yet)

Excuse me, but is anyone can explain me how to remove movie maker, outlook, WMP and netmeeting ? do i use the batch above ? (MSN cant be removed in winnt.sif so it's ok)

I know you have a reg tweak for enabling the service related to the xp firewall.
