Subject: FLASH: Off Topic - IE4 licence
From: Derek Kelly

Hi

This is slightly off topic but I wondered if anyone could help.

We are installing an intranet and are customising a version of IE4 for it,
and then want to put it together with various plugins (flash/shockwave etc),
on a CD for the company. We have a licence from Microsoft to distribute the
browser and a copy of IEAK which allows us to package our customised browser
and whatever plugins we want and make it into an executable which we then
thought we could burn onto a CD and give to our clients.

However, when we made a test, what happened was that the program installed a
some components and then asked us to connect to the internet so that it
could download components. What we wanted was to be able to install the
browser and the plugins from the CD we made, as some of our clients
computers are not connected to the internet therefore can't install the
browser and plugins this way. As I cant seen to find any definite info
about whether you definitely need a connection to the web in order to do it
this way then I was hoping someone else had the answer.

I know we've talked about the difficulties of getting the flash plugin for
distribution before and getting a licence to distribute the browser and the
plugins was one way around it for us, but this of course would make no sense
if what you then had to do was to logon to install them anyway!

I'm sure we are doing something stupid but cant think what.

If anyone could help then I would be very grateful
thanks in advance
