NOTE: the first 2line is for not to look up internet explorer if it isn't the default browser.
It doesn't delete any dependences for ie. I've just collected the changes made by firefox

the original installer with the -ms switch installs fine here @T12/13... also set as default browser... I assume it has to work with svcpack then right? why a modded switchless installer?

back on feb 1st, 2006, when i started making this installer, the original installer wasnt svcpack compatible. Thats when, and why i was making this installer. Thanks for the heads up, i didnt know this was 'fixed'. This was a very difficult msi to produce! I'll be glad to stop making it.

I use a command in cmdlines.txt that makes my RunOnceEx run at T12/13, it works for me then. I don't know much about the svcpack method so I can not say with absolute guarantee it would work but since svcpack also runs at T12/13 I think it should work.

What I mean is adding a few more extension to the next release, in case you agree, I love some like: StumbleUpon 2.83 ,Colorful Tabs 1.4, ...etc
I'm sorry if you get my meaning wrong

There are a number of extension that allow you to capture or download the media and flash files embeded in the website, just make a quick search on the website I remember I've seen it there

The office plugin allows viewing office documents within firefox. The WindowsMedia/DRM plugins allow Windows Media Player to be used by firefox to play streaming video within firefox.

I check my package in Spanish and I found that everything is in XPI that is compressed, but how installer manage this, cause I revised every point, and I can't find any thing about chrome (.jar files) that is the language files (and some in search files). Another question, how do you uncompress Firefox... I tried, but I can't :S
