RE: FLASH: Off Topic - IE4 licence

[Andrew Timberlake]

We've also got the IEAK and it installs the Shockwave and flash players.

The only connection message we get is a message box asking if you are

connected, to disconnect.

This is so that you can distribute via CD or Web.


Check carefully through all the options you are selecting as you compile the

kit.

Subject: FLASH: Off Topic - IE4 licence



Hi


This is slightly off topic but I wondered if anyone could help.


We are installing an intranet and are customising a version of IE4 for it,

and then want to put it together with various plugins (flash/shockwave etc),

on a CD for the company.  We have a licence from Microsoft to distribute the

browser and a copy of IEAK which allows us to package our customised browser

and whatever plugins we want and make it into an executable which we then

thought we could burn onto a CD and give to our clients.


However, when we made a test, what happened was that the program installed a

some components and then asked us to connect to the internet so that it

could download components.  What we wanted was to be able to install the

browser and the plugins from the CD we made, as some of our clients

computers are not connected to the internet therefore can't install the

browser and plugins this way.  As I cant seen to find any definite info

about whether you definitely need a connection to the web in order to do it

this way then I was hoping someone else had the answer.


I know we've talked about the difficulties of getting the flash plugin for

distribution before and getting a licence to distribute the browser and the

plugins was one way around it for us, but this of course would make no sense

if what you then had to do was to logon to install them anyway!


I'm sure we are doing something stupid but cant think what.


If anyone could help then I would be very grateful

thanks in advance
