I have tried several methods to get norton 2009 antivirus (90day trial) and internet security (15 day trial) to silently install and I cant seem to ge tit to work properly. So far I have tried the following

/qb

/qn

/noreboot

several other switches that dont seem to work..oddly enough, /qb seems to kinda work, but the service does not get started...but if i manually run the service, it almost acts like it wants to reinstall again.

the program never mentions any reboots that are needed or not needed and leaves me sitting at the screen wondering if its installed or not.

What I want to do is basically this..

silently install either product and then have the window come up to activate manually and go from there

if another version exists I want the app to silently install and then prompt the user for a reboot, after a reboot the install should continue as normal.

if anyone has any insight into this, that would be greatly appreciated.

-Thanks.

Erm, I think that after it has installed, you will need to reboot your pc for the services to register & start, this is how I did things with NIS 2006

Hope this helps
