Run the installer to the first screen. Don't choose next. Go to the folder and get the .msi file and the data1.cab, you don't need anything else and copy them to wherever your deploying from. Now cancel/exit the installer. The .msi doesn't install any toolbar either, even though the exe has it in it.

Wishing to force Java JRE updates on my users (they sort-of update automatically, but the user must click the icon to get the update to run), I've been looking up how to get an .MSI file for the latest JRE version. Unfortunately, the Java web site does not seem to work... http://www.java.com/en/download/help/msi_install.xml This tells you to download and run the .EXE file. It then says where the .MSI has been extracted. This much is true. However, if I finish the install, then the .MSI file gets deleted. If I abort the process, the .MSI files gets deleted. If I pause the process, then the .MSI file is either "locked" so it can't be copied elsewhere, or if it copies it becomes non-functional. The referenced web site has a "Get Help Now!" button. That brings one to a pay-to-play chat session, "Most problems cost about $50 to fix." Nice... Anyway, the version to which we currently wish to force our systems is Java 6 Update 23. Any successful methods to extract the .MSI for that version? Thanks! -- Richard D. McClary Systems Administrator, Information Technology Group ASPCAR 1717 S.
