Update - 20051126
Updated Crap Cleaner to V1.26.218
Added DVD Identifier V4.2.0
Added MSN Messenger V7.5.0311.rar
Added Paint.NET V2.5
Updated TrueCrypt to V4.1


Please note that the Paint.NET installer has not been rigorously tested. I ran it through some it's paces, applied some filters, etc. and I didn't run into anything, but I'd appreciate it someone would give me feedback if there are any problems. I always worry about repacks of programs that require .NET.

Any chance of one for Power DVD v5 or 6? I'm having problems with the silent install version at the moment, and there doesn't seem to be a fix...

Thanks

The problem with PowerDVD is that it's not freeware. I've decided against posting commercial application repacks with the reg info or serial missing. Just don't need the potential hassle.

I guess there is a license problem here...

Yeah i can see where your coming from.

RogueSpear how long do these packs take to make for you?

[RogueSpear]

It depends on the complexity of the install and also if I've ever done the application before. Something like QuickTime Alternative that I've done a hundred times and has nothing particularly special about it, probably takes me like 15 to 20 minutes.

The Micosoft AntiSpyware took a long time because there was all kinds of problems that had to be solved, but further versions will hopefully not take so long. But as a rule, with a new app I've never repacked before, if I don't run into anything unsuall, I figure about a half hour to repack and then a half hour to test it out. Sometimes it takes quite a bit longer, but rarely does it ever take less time than that.

It's a process that involves a lot of steps and a lot of things to do. None of it is overly complex, but it also took me a few years of experience doing it to find all of the little things to watch out for. There's a lot of "gotchas" and a lot of little tricks to repack something.

greeeeeeat post man but........I would like a silent msn installer in italian, can you please explain me how to integrate msn+msn plus+some changes with mess.be patch?

[RogueSpear]

The MSN Messenger installer was made with InstallShield AdminStudio by performing a two step snapshot, which is how I always repack applications. So if you know how to repack an app into an .msi file, either with AdminStudio or some other tool, then you can do this. Just do snapshot 1, then install your app and make any changes to it such as using the MSN patcher or installing Messenger Plus, then do snapshot 2. Obviously there is some cleanup and little things to change with the resulting files and registry entries, but it's really quite simple. With the exception of having to make a little VBscript, the MSN Messenger installer was really one of the easier ones I've done lately.

real alternative and quicktime alternative switchless players , dont install....

[RogueSpear]

@muiz, I've never had an issue with either of those installers. Ever. Are you receiving an error message? Is the install directory present (%programfiles%\Multimedia\Real Alternative or %programfiles%\Multimedia\QuickTime Alternative) ? And did you notice that those installers both point to Media Player Classic at %programfiles%\Windows Media Player\mplayer2.exe ?

[thuun derboy]

You are using XP Pro English right?, I tested them on a friends PC and they work fine for him, maybe you have some conflicting software already installed?
