An example to use with the WinRaR 3.2 silent install is mIRC. Install mIRC on the current machine, then rar the folder, and under options, check the "Create SFX archive". This makes sure that WinRaR is not required. Then, continue onto the advanced tab, and click the "SFX options..." button. From there, you can determine path, and files that need to be run after and before extraction, all under the General tab. Under the Advanced tab, you can tell it to create shortcuts for the desktop, start menu, and so on (multiple if wanted). It also gives you a prompt for file deletion. Continuing to Modes tab, there you can unpack the files to a temporary folder (if you have a silent install and want to organize and make file sizes smaller). There is also a section for Silent mode, which allows either "Display all", "Hide start dialog", or "Hide all". I recommend the "Hide start dialog" because it gives you a display of extracting files. The Text and icon tab allows you to change the name of the title to your program as well as change the icon, so it looks like an original installer for that program. As for modules, you should leave it on Default.SFX which gives all the advanced options. Hopefully this helps.
