um...

winzip has to be either extracted, copied over and THEN called via winzip32.exe or you have to remake the SFX calling it.

it must be nice being able to get the corporate versions of Winzip and WinRAR legally.....

I think the Java SDK contains an .msi which you can extract and then execute with the /qb!.

For java.. I used info from this site: Java Silent Installation

And here is what works for me (note, I use Mozilla Firefox):

CODE

%systemdrive%\INSTALL\PROGRAMS\JAVA\Java142_03.exe /s /v"/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL IEXPLORER=1 MOZILLA=1 REBOOT=Suppress JAVAUPDATE=0"
