[Release] Internet Explorer 7 English w/Updates (v2.0.4a)

Kiki Burgh · Post by **Kiki Burgh** » Fri Feb 16, 2007 10:55 am

hi Mr. NxDmX! would this: FIX: The configuration program for an application does not run and the RunOnceEx registry key is cleared when you restart a computer that is running Internet Explorer 7 introduce some modifications to the current execution of this great addon?

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Fri Feb 16, 2007 11:46 am

Kiki Burgh, that issue is fixed by KB928090, and its already in the addon

DigeratiPrime, I havent tested this with Ryan's pack again. I will do after downloading his new pack.
When I did a test with beta addon, i had KB925454 should be reinstalled in qfecheck. But no idea with final addon.
Will inform when i do a new test.

Post by **RyanVM** » Fri Feb 16, 2007 11:48 am

Well, you shouldn't get any errors regarding KB925454 with 2.1.7 given that it's no longer in the pack

. I will be curious to see how it handles the IE6 KB928090, though. Do you write the registry entries to KB928090 or KB928090-IE7?

Ugh. Rapidshare limit reached.

Any other hosting site?

Update, rapidshare reports "invalid session"

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Fri Feb 16, 2007 4:40 pm

You are welcome Kiki Burgh. Its a pleasure for me to hear that you liked the addon.
(Check ur pm)

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Fri Feb 16, 2007 5:32 pm

See this thread for some IE7 tweaks.
Copy the codes you want, and paste them under Tweaks.AddReg in NR_IE7en.inf file.
(Do not modify the entries in the inf file without knowledge of what they do)

MrNXDmx is this now compatible with RyanVM Update Pack 2.1.7?

Thanks,
Dean

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Sat Feb 17, 2007 5:00 pm

dolivas, it works ok with ryans latest pack (as reported), but i will make an update on the addon when i find more time.

dolivas · Post by **dolivas** » Sun Feb 18, 2007 2:07 am

MrNXDmx Ok thanks I have tried it out and it's seems to work great. Thanks again for the update.

bober101 · Post by **bober101** » Sun Feb 18, 2007 5:28 am

ive found that msoobe gets skipped with KB928090-IE7,have any of you had this problem too?

dougiefresh · Post by **dougiefresh** » Sun Feb 18, 2007 7:22 am

Excellent work, MrNxDmX!! I intergrated and install in VirtualPC without problems. Appears stable. I've got a question, though: Is there any way to eliminate that reboot question? Perhaps move it to another section in the INF file so that it executes before logging in to the user session?

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Mon Feb 19, 2007 9:00 am

bober101, it doesnt happen because of this addon. I tested several times, and saw OOBE everytime. Please check the other addons you used.

dougiefresh, I couldnt eliminate that restart prompt. At first, it prompted at t13, and that was ugly and unstable for unattended installations, cos it pauses the install.
Then i made it prompt before first desktop loads, but it wasnt stable cos it broke the desktop loading.
Once i made it prompt at second log-on and that wasnt my aim.
At last, I made it to prompt after desktop loads, and it was stable only like that. I couldnt manage it prompt while OOBE screen or after t13. I am tired of making vmware installs only for that prompt.

You cant remove the prompt without replacing some new files in i386. When you do so, you will get errors in setuperr.log.

Addon is updated to 1.0.1. There is only minor change for cat files. IE6 version of KB928090.cat is needed by some files. I didnt remove it by default. Check the entries.ini and nr_ie7en.inf file to enable the obsolote entries.

pupil · Post by **pupil** » Tue Feb 20, 2007 7:41 pm

Integrated this to Ryans 2.1.7 pack, plus Ryans WGA and DirectX addons, and installed it onto my housemates computer, worked like a dream, wonderful work, thanks

Protagonist. · Post by **Protagonist.** » Fri Feb 23, 2007 8:54 pm

I just installed again with the latest version and same thing. I open IE and it freezes.

I rebooted when it prompted me to btw.

SoKoOLz · Post by **SoKoOLz** » Fri Feb 23, 2007 8:57 pm

Any switchless release?

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Sat Feb 24, 2007 7:03 am

Sorry Protagonist., I cant reproduce that error? I dont know what you installed with your windows but it must be sth else, not this addon. I cant think about anything without having no info about your integration process. I did lots of vmware and real machine tests and ie7 didnt freeze in any of them.

SoKoOLz, there were switchless installers in the forum. You can find them with just a quick search. I dont think to make a switchless ie7, sorry.

shon3i · Post by **shon3i** » Sat Feb 24, 2007 7:39 am

This update working just fine, only thing is that reboot, but that is not problem for me, because better that then integrate via nLite.

Aslo it's wga free.

@MrNxDmX, Thanks so much

pawan · Post by **pawan** » Sun Feb 25, 2007 2:08 pm

MrNXDmx thanks for the addon pack, just burn new cd with ryanupdate pack, works great....but there is 'show image toolbar' option in IE advance setting.

As per my knowledge this has been removed from the IE7.

shon3i · Post by **shon3i** » Mon Feb 26, 2007 4:03 pm

And why language bar is always show in taskbar when i reboot windows.

EDIT: my mistake

ericlai · Post by **ericlai** » Mon Feb 26, 2007 6:24 pm

I change NR_IE7en.inf

"\??\C:\WINDOWS\system32\DllCache\new_imgutil.dll" (and ......... about c:\WINDOWS\system32 to %11% )

to

"\??\%11%\DllCache\new_imgutil.dll"

It is setup to d: e: f: test ok!

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 6:17 am

You are welcome shon3i.Thanks for informing that it works

Can somebody confirm this issue please? I am not sure about this issue related with addon.

pawan wrote:there is 'show image toolbar' option in IE advance setting.

ericlai, i will try your suggestion. You are right, its better to use %11%.

Protagonist. · Post by **Protagonist.** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 10:31 am

I forgot to mention my windows didn't install onto C drive. Could that have caused my freezing problem?

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 4:13 pm

Can somebody test this addon for me? --removed-- see addon v1.0.2
Size: 10,7 MB / MD5: 56A81A29C0A45898AB6246A188BA0A7B

I want to be sure it works ok (especially for Protagonist.) , before releasing in main post. I changed some values in the inf file as ericlai did.

There is yet another new Root Certificates Update from Microsoft, so that one is not MrNxDmX's or RyanVM's fault.

yep, I've got it already. However, what I want is a switchless installer with 3 new secuirity updates ^^

Nameless Mofo · Post by **Nameless Mofo** » Thu Mar 01, 2007 8:09 am

Hi MrNxDmX, pretty nice addon! Thanks for your hard work to make this! I do have one question. If I want to integrate this addon together with Ryan's update pack and his WMP10 addon, is there any required order to the addons? In other words should I put the WMP10 addon first, or your IE7 addon first? I'm assuming that the order doesn't matter.

Also I was browsing the files in the addon, and found a typo in entries_NR_IE7.ini. The line:

Code: Select all

[obsolote]

should be:

Code: Select all

[obsolete]

Not a problem for now, but if this section is used later it might be. I'll keep an eye out for any other bugs for ya.

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Thu Mar 01, 2007 11:49 am

Thanks thunderchero & glent for the report. 5eraph described the situation with root certificates

Also AFAIK, that KB924667 is a known nLite issue. Hope it will be fixed soon.

I'm sorry SoKoOLz, I cant make a switchless for ie7. I dont have access to my main computer anymore. I keep my addons in a portable hdd, that prevents me to work on new addons.

Nameless Mofo, order doesnt matter IMO. As Update pack gets integrated first, no conflicts will occur with mp10 or mp11.
I changed the obsolote to obsolete, thanks for that.

Addon is updated to 1.0.2 with minor changes in the inf file. Thanks all for your help.

the_guy · Post by **the_guy** » Thu Mar 01, 2007 4:42 pm

@MrNxDmx: obselete is still incorrect. You want it to have 'obsolete' without the quotes.

DigeratiPrime · Post by **DigeratiPrime** » Thu Mar 01, 2007 6:12 pm

thanks for the update (1.0.2)works good

Nameless Mofo · Post by **Nameless Mofo** » Fri Mar 02, 2007 4:50 pm

@the_guy: I just checked the file in the 1.0.2 release, and it's correct in the file. I suppose MrNxdmx typoed when he wrote the post.

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Fri Mar 02, 2007 5:25 pm

the_guy, Nameless Mofo is right. It was a typo in my post. Addon is OK.
Thanks for the report DigeratiPrime. I plan to update the addon after Ryan's next update pack, in one week.

Hey mrn just wanted to report I tried your 1.0.2 and it works perfectly now, thanks very much for your work.

Or RVM Integrator.

retalion, Protagonist.; thanks for the report.

RaGhul · Post by **RaGhul** » Sat Mar 10, 2007 9:11 pm

Ah, now I know why you've been so busy!!

Great job, man! We've all been clammoring for this. I guess the heat died down since you could add IE7 with nLite, but now that it also needs some Hotfixes, the demand went up again. I also think some people stopped bothering with IE7 because MOST of us use Firefox.

This addon saves LOTS of time.

Question:
Forgive my stupidity if this has already been covered. (I just did a quick-glance at the posts) Does the restart issue have anything to do with Reg entries? Even if it doesn't, there should be SOME workaround possible, since nLite integrates the standard installer without needing a reboot.

Just wondering.

Thx!!

OK, got one bug report for you.
You are prompted to restart after first logon for each user. After initial install and first mandatory restart, I installed a bunch more apps (restarts between most of them). Then created a new user, logged-off, logged-in to new user then BAM got the "You must restart" popup.

This was with Ryans' 2.1.7 pack and your IE 1.0.2 pack (plus others).

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Sun Mar 11, 2007 3:29 pm

You are welcome RaGhul. The need for restart is for not hacking any dlls while integrating ie7. There is no workaround for it without hacking dlls.

mr_smartepants, you are right with that. I can reproduce the error. But its not needed to restart the computer when prompted, it will make no conflicts or errors with ie7. I will try to find another way for it.

Can you tell which dll needs to be hacked ? Or make running with hacked dll an optional addon with this ?

viinno · Post by **viinno** » Sun Mar 11, 2007 4:09 pm

Just out of curiosity here, is there any preference as to when to intergrate the IE7 addon? before or after update pack?
having not used the intergrator but a couple times (great job btw) you can just select to include add ons and the update pack all at the same time cant you?
sorry for my noobness

You shouldn't have to worry about the order in the integrator. The integrator should handle that for you just fine.
