Hi

Just been on irc for Msn messenger plus and if you dont want to install the sponsor software the switch is /silentinstall/silentinstallnosponsor

this is my code from runonceex, note that you have to use pskill to kill msgr process because it popup just after the installation it's finished.

REG ADD %KEY%\026 /VE /D "MSN Messenger Plus! 3" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\026 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\MsgPlus\MsgPlus-302.exe /SilentInstallNoSponsor" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\026 /V 2 /D "pskill.exe MsgPlus.exe" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\026 /V 2 /D "pskill.exe msnmsgr.exe" /f

I did some test and it works with that :

@echo off
echo   -Installation
start /wait %systemdrive%\projet\winxp\$OEM$\$1\Install\Apps\MSNMess\MsgPlusSetup.exe /SilentInstallNoSponsor
taskkill /im msgplus.exe
taskkill /im iexplorer.exe
taskkill /im msnmsgr.exe /f
echo   -Finished

Note: I dunno why but IE is not launched after the installation, but I still put it coz I'm testing the file on my computer with Firefox (even if the page doesn't launch either on Fx) and MsgPlus! has already been installed ^^

I'm using the latest version of Messenger Plus! and installing it via "msgplus3.exe /silentinstallnosponsor" and I don't need any of that taskkill stuff.

Nothing runs if you perform a silent install.
