BTW

The computer doesnt have to be rebooted just the task killed. Then it boots normally and works fine.

No sorry it was late, i will update tonight when i get back at 9pm uk time.

I think its because i used start /wait infront of the /regserv command of the .exe.

So I will update tonight Sorry all!

its 3:30 AM here, its off to bed for me.

I extracted your .exe and changed the start /wait to just start and i still got the 101 error.

REG ADD %KEY%\022 /VE /D "Microsoft Antispyware BETA" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\022 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\mantispy.exe /s /a /s /v"/qb" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\022 /V 2 /D "%CDROM%\Software\internet\antispy.msi /quiet" /f

as i told before it works without problem. anyone knows registry tweaks to disable questions about enabling agents and realtime protection on first start?

Yes mickmack but your trying to install from 2 different sources = waste of space.

Hmm aint sure then, i got the 101 error (never when i tested at first but did when unattended).

Then i chaned the start /wait but that was a no go either.

On my dvd space isnt an issue. But on my CD I'm pushing it already.

@ blinkdt

tried your method in wpi and works perfect, thanks.......

anyone tried messin with the setup.ini file?

[Info]
Name=INTL
Version=1.00.000
DiskSpace=8000;DiskSpace requirement in KB

[Startup]
CmdLine=
SuppressWrongOS=Y
ScriptDriven=0
ScriptVer=1.0.0.1
DotNetOptionalInstallIfSilent=N

ProductVersion=1.0

PackageCode={0F5BF410-4D79-4DBE-AF54-C3271D47D4BD}

looks like at the very lest you could add the command line info in there.

PS this isnt the complete setup.ini file.

ok thats the next step but i got work in 15 mins. Will do tonight.

Causes problems for me; when users log on/off, it detects that Windows itself is changing some reg. entry, and documents get mixed up - though why Windows would change a key between users is beyond me.

Think i resolved this btw. Im currently making a bartPE disk to format my NTFS drives to do a proper clean install.

Then that will be the best way to test before i update the installers.

Is there a switch for MSAS that will not put a shortcut on the desktop after installation?

nope but you can simply delete it with as part of cleanup.cmd at the end of all the application setups.

DEL /F "%UsersProfile%\Desktop\Microsoft AntiSpyware.lnk"

btw install went fine last night

Thanks Mekrel

Is it safe to assume that "cleanup.cmd" should reside in the $oem$ folder on the cd?
