I hope tomcat76 doesn't mind me [tommyp] editting this post to add in a beta test build. See attachment for beta testing in preparation for the next final. Bugfixes:
Beta A - Added in WM11 codec slipstreaming (not the player, just the codecs by themselves).
Reordered HFCLEANUP and Drivercab merging.
HFCLEANUP made more friendly for slipstreaming drivers if removing with HFCLEANUP
HFCLEANUP reducers for XP seem to work now after lots of testing.
Beta B - Set HFSLIP to ignore KB968930
Redid parsing of KB975254 so that the new file is put in the right location.
Beta C - Acheron set me straight with the processing of the IIS fix. Thanks!
Beta D - Chop my fingers off, a typo. Hope all is fixed with the iis fix now.
Beta E - Special FDV request.
Beta F - Fixed a problem when slipstreaming drivers and not using hfcleanup. Thanks Inki!
Beta G - Finally got a round tuit and fixed a lingering prob with some languages for slipstreaming
the ms installer 4.5.
Beta H - The IE8 installer was run twice in previous releases. Now it only runs once. Changed
the IE8 installation INFs so that they are easier to remove IE8 using hfcleanup.
Beta I - Various echo cleanups, hfslip.log cleanup, french xp home fix.
Beta J - Fix for the xp home fix.
No donations = no more support. Two and half years and ZERO donations tells me that it wasn't useful enough. Good luck all!

You can help by checking if the binary removal files (2000SP4.EXT, XPSP1.EXT and XPSP2.EXT) cover everything. Download dumpdupes.cmd and place it in the main HFSLIP folder (alongside the normal HFSLIP executable). Run this tool AFTER you ran HFSLIP (it namely requires a SOURCE and a SOURCESS folder to compare). If there are any duplicate binaries that can be removed, a file called EXCLUDE.TXT will be created. Let me know if it contains additional files to those that already exist in the current removal files. This program can be used to check Windows 2000, XP and 2003 sources.
Dumpdupes.cmd has one limitation: it only checks for duplicates in the current sources. This tool would have to be run again whenever new hotfixes arrive in order to ensure the list is up to date. I'll probably make another tool that outputs a full list of any driver binary that isn't supposed to be loose in I386 once I evaluated the pros and cons of both.
