thanks shark007 - you know this will need updating for many years to come

The shockwave installer was UPDATED August 15, 2006. - While using CrapCleaner i noticed missing registry entries causing it to want to delete several of the shockwave entries.

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE

I have removed the svcpack compatibility designation.
The installer has not changed but due to issues i've discovered, this installer must be used after 1st boot. My apologies to those affected.

the Macromedia Shockwave player link is down any chance of a repost?

Still can't find a working link to an installation of the shockwave player without Google, Yahoo, Autoupdate, etc. If there isn't a installer I will try to make an MSI by myself...

Please let me know.

Thanks shark!!!

GREAT!!

But.. For our distribution I need the MSI. I cannot call the executable with a custom action within another MSI because the swInstaller.exe will extract to an MSI. I Believe that windows installer cannot handle 2 MSI's at the same time...

Do you also have the MSI or is there a way to "extract" the MSI from the swInstaller.exe?

Shark, Thanx a lot I will test the MSI. If there are some issues, I'll let you know...

Shockwave player updated to 10.1.4.20

This version has AutoUpdate enabled by default and i havent found a way to turn this off other than visiting this page at ADOBE. To turn it off, right click on the shockwave video and choose 'properties'.

I know there are several registry settings for autoupdate but they dont seem to affect the setting i suggested above.

the key you are searching for is here

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Macromedia\Shockwave 10\AutoUpdate

change the value default from "y" to "n"

I'm aware this key exists, but it doesn't turn off the situation i described earlier.

odd, it doesn't change the registry values here when i turn it off through the webpage as descibed earlier.

Sereby, you were correct. i was looking at the wrong key. I was looking in HKLM.

watch my repository for an (updated) file with this turned off by default.

This shockwave installer IS NOT svcpack compatible. Although it installs and functions fine, 5 active-x issues show up in crapcleaner from an svcpack install. When installing this through runonceex etc., these issues are nonexistent.
