How to install Internet Exploder 7 in the background

Eish - anything that dangerous should be well marked, with plenty of opt-outs.
 
Why? What mischief are you planning? :D

Company regulations... all users must have exploder 7 :(

I made this once off script called IE7.bat, closest thing I could think of

Also contained in the folder is a IE7.exe (a Renamed IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe )

IE7.bat code
Code:
echo off
cls
Title Installing Internet Explorer 7 (Do NOT close this window)
IE7.exe /quiet /norestart 
ping 127.0.0.1
ping 127.0.0.1
ping 127.0.0.1
del IE7.exe
del IE7.bat
 
bah... pity on you for having to install exploder7... :(

it is teh sux!

played with it once, and never again.
 
What kind of half-brained, dim witted and technologically backward excuse for a company would mandate IE7 on all PCs?

I'm not sure which one would do that, consciously, but we have a CRM system that makes extensive use of activex...we bought into this system when firefox wasnt really viable (2003-2004) so we have to use IE for that.
not everything is straightforward in a big company.

does that qualify?

:sick:
 
I couldn't convince the rest of the family to use FF...until I replaced ie6 with ie7 on the PC.:D
 
I prefer IE7 to IE6. I can't imagine using IE6 anymore, it's really terrible. At least IE7 has tabs. :/

A lot of companies can't use Firefox, so IE7 is at least better than IE6.
