DAEMON Tools 4.0.msi without toolbar

I spent the better part of two days trying to repack DT4 and kept on getting the same error as the screenshot pic posted above. After really looking into this closely, my conclusion is that the install routine is taking steps to protect itself and evade detection by rights management software. And this will make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to successfully repack into an .msi file.

There's another issue though. I can't say for certain, but from what I have read, it would appear as though the Daemon Tools development team is readying a "Pro" version (read you pay for it). I've seen screenshots that show a rather professional looking interface and features not even hinted at in this newest V4 release. Plus the "Pro" in my mind almost always denotes that it ain't freeware no more. Just look at DeepBurner, DVD Rebuilder, and a long list of others that were for a long time freeware before going pro. So perhaps the toolbar, while optional during install, will find it's way on to enough desktops when click happy people whiz through the install routine without reading anything.

I couldn't get you .msi file to work either. So I made two autoit

scripts to install it. I have to run the first one then reboot the

computer and run the second one for it to install correctly.

You may want to check the AutoIt thread as I have done it with 1 script. :)
