To install this program unattened is fairly easy except for the passcode anyone know how to get it from asking what it is?

Short of memorizing the code and putting it in when asked, you'll have to try a .vbs script......

which works fine! You can also apply the technique to other programs that don't have unattended install.

Here's the .vbs script mentioned above, except for a much faster installation and a smaller file size.

Thanks in part to Westi.

CODE

'Automatic installation of Ad-aware 6 Pro

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Popup "DO NOT MOVE the mouse and DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTON!!",3," - WARNING !! - ",48

'You have to check the path !
WshShell.Run ("%systemdrive%\Install\Apps\Adaware\aw6181.exe /s")

'If your Hard Drive is slow, increase the next value
WScript.Sleep 8000

'Insert your serial where it says xxxxxxx
WshShell.SendKeys "xxxxxxx"
WScript.Sleep 2000
WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
Wscript.Quit

Short and sweet......

CODE

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run ("%systemdrive%\Install\Apps\Adaware\aw6181.exe /s")
WScript.Sleep 8000
WshShell.SendKeys "xxxxxxx"
WScript.Sleep 2000
WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
Wscript.Quit

Save as adaware.vbs. Install should take about 10 seconds.
