INSTALL_QUICKLAUNCH_ICONS=false
INSTALL_DESKTOP_ICONS=false

this is a vbs script that IcemanND wrote for me to use windows x 6.1 for messenger to use it just change the number of downs to the skin of your liking and of course change the sleep times to fit your computer also

dim WshShell, iLoopTimeWait
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
iLoopTimeWait = 500

Function Connect2Window(iTime, sWindowName)
Do until WshShell.AppActivate (sWindowName)
WScript.Sleep iTime
loop
End function

WshShell.Run app & "msn61-winx.exe"
connect2window ilooptimewait, "MSN Messenger 6.1 - Windows X"
WshShell.SendKeys "{Tab}"

WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
Connect2Window iLoopTimeWait, "MSN Messenger 6.1 Setup"
WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
wscript.sleep 5000

WshShell.SendKeys "%a"

WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
wscript.sleep 60000

WshShell.SendKeys "{Tab}"

WshShell.SendKeys "{DOWN 10}"
wscript.sleep 5000
WshShell.SendKeys "%a"
wscript.sleep 20000
WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"

WScript.Sleep 1000
