holljac Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 I have a working unattended DVD of W2000 with SP4 and hotfixes slipstreamed. It has has several other pieces of software that silently installs, such as Office 2003, Adobe Reader, JRE, Ad-Aware.... Anyways, the problem is that when the install is done and you log in, everything is perfect; except the first time you use IE it launches the "Connect to the Internet Wizard". Then you cancel out of it and everything works fine. I can remove the icon with runonce, but it still pops up. I even tried deleting the whole folder once (C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\Connection Wizard), but all that did was make it so networking would not even function. I am going to be installing this on about 20 computers and don't want to have to go around and touch every box just to get by this. It's also become a personal issue to figure this out. Nothing obsessive about me! Anyways, does anyone have any tips or solutions? Much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twig123 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Unfortunatly, deleting this registry entry has no effect on the "connect to the internet" window that pops open when first opening IE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
