5eraph's Internet Explorer 8 Addon
Version: 2009-10_2


Goal:
    This addon slipstreams Internet Explorer 8 and its updates directly into an NT 5.2 x64 source.
Details:
  • Intended for Windows XP x64 SP2, English. Also works with Windows Server 2003 x64 SP2, English.
  • SP2 is required to use this addon. The following old SP1 files in the original installer have been omitted for compatibility with RVMi:
      browseui.dll, shdocvw.dll and shlwapi.dll
      wbrowseui.dll, wshdocvw.dll and wshlwapi.dll
  • All files are from the SP2QFE branch, where applicable.
  • Tested in VMware Server 1.0.9 throughout development.
  • Tested with and without my update pack.
  • Integrates with RyanVM Integrator 1.6 and nLite 1.4.9.1.
Credits:Downloads:
  • Due to MSFN rules regarding direct links to Microsoft executables, please visit the mirror topic at ryanvm.net for AddOn download links. smile.gif

    Tweaks INI including all my preferred tweaks. Requires an IE8 addon above.
    Compress for use with nLite. (DETAILS)
  • Link: entries_IE8Tweaks.ini
    Size: 5.67 KB
    MD5: e64a48d27b845af446670e82a421b4e1
Updates Included in v2009-10_2:
    Note: Bulleted updates can be verified with QFECheck, if it exists on your system.

    High Priority Updates:
    • KB971961 - MS09-045 - JScript Scripting Engine v5.8
    • KB974455 - MS09-054 - Internet Explorer - Cumulative

    Optional Updates:
    • KB975364 - Compatibility View list update (October 27, 2009)

    Additional Updates:
Notes:
    Having never created an IE7 addon—mostly due to laziness—this addon was particularly challenging to create. Being the last on the scene has its benefits, though. There's plenty of material to study from others who know what they're doing. newwink.gif

    Everybody credited above played a huge part in the creation of this addon, even if only passively. Sereby for always being first, and for having the easiest addon to study for structure. YumeYao and MrNxDmX (NR) for their cleverness in using delayed file renaming to avoid errors in SetupErr.log. Honorable mention goes to OnePiece and nonno fabio for having the genius to create an uninstallable addon and an IEx addon creator, but, alas, they were much too difficult for me to study.

    All tweaks previously included within the IE8 addon have been removed and placed in entries_IE8Tweaks.ini. Integrate the INI as is to include all my preferred tweaks—they're fully commented and tested—or edit as you see fit. Tweaks must be in INF format and will be applied to all users.

Hi!
I want to integrate your addon in my version of windows XP x64 (i've simply added the update),but i've a problem.
I add the IE8addon+update with nlite and i install the ISO in my VM.
When i use windows update he wants to download the compaibility list and the update pack of ie8.
How i can solve this problem? i'm sure i integrate the ie8addon+updates.

thank you!

5eraph, do you, by any chance, also have your tweaks translated into .REG format? Sure I can do the conversion myself, but I reckon you would have done it the other way around already, so..

Note to nLite users: KB971961 must be slipstreamed after either of these IE8 addons.

v2009-06_3 does not include the latest updates, ascatem. I am currently unable to properly update or test this addon. Please use v2009-03_1 with the updates recommended by Kurt_Aust in nLite.

I am sorry, meowing. I do not have a REG file that contains those tweaks.

Updated to 2009-09_1. Please read the Changelog for full details.

If Microsoft keeps with their schedule of IE updates every other month then we can expect v2009-09_1 to be very short-lived...

I am curious what tool did you use to create this addon?

No single tool besides my own brain. newwink.gif
    I checked the files in the IE8 installer against the files on my XPx64 source disc to split them into two groups: those that would replace preexisting files, and those that would need to be added as new files. With over 250 files, this was the most tedious and time-consuming part.

    All of the new source files then needed to be segregated into DLLs and non-DLLs. Most non-DLLs ended up in IE8.CAB within the addon for installation through 5erIE8.inf. I used jdoe's CAB Tool to create IE8.CAB for use in the addon. The rest of the new source files needed entries added to entries_IE8x64.ini which was written from scratch.

    I then checked update.inf within the installer to see where all the files that needed to be added would be installed. My INF (5erIE8.inf) is a heavily modified version of the original update.inf. I removed all unused sections, then removed entries in the INF for most preexisting files and new source DLLs since entries_IE8x64.ini would handle the chore of installing the new DLLs. And I added some sections used by others such as Sereby, YumeYao and MrNxDmX custom-tailored to XPx64.

    Some editing of the original ie.inf source file was necessary for Windows to recognize the new IE version. The edited file was added to the addon.

    7-Zip was used to package all of the files into a single addon.

    Finally, much testing with VMware Server 1.0.9 to make sure everything works as it should. smile.gif
This isn't a complete history of the steps I took, or the troubleshooting that was performed. But it does basically describe the process I used.

I'm aware of it. As far as I know, it does not support x64. newwink.gif

Can KB898461 be included in IE8 addon pack? It exists only for 32 bit.

Thanks, Sp0iLedBrAt. smile.gif

I'd consider adding it if Microsoft had an XPx64 installation package available for it, atolica, but I can't find one on support.microsoft.com, download.microsoft.com, or any reference to such a package within WindowsUpdate.log in %SystemRoot%.

If I could find a package for it, though, it would end up in the update pack. KB898461 is an operating system update, not an update for Internet Explorer.
