No, It's Not I made it.
I also made the windows vista sp2 beta enabler posted on this forum.
It is loader.
It executes messenger.msi which is extracted to the temp directory after checking for right permissions via bat file.
messenger.msi signed by Microsoft Proof:

Here is a picture of the patcher.
Purpose: I was adding addition features to prevent over-installing but I didn't have time.
Also add some gui

You wanted to add some features and to repack it, but you didn't have the time to add those features,
so you left them out and repacked it without the features you wanted to add?

Okay......
NEW LINK ON 1st POST ( Build 14.0.5027.908) Some the features are in the packer but disabled and some others removed and isolated for further development, not stable enough.
I fixed the music and window skin and edited the top rapidshare link.
(The preceding picture is what I edited the rapidshare link to. So if you downloaded
the original one I posted, please redownload to see changes.
Also, without patcher installer has no gui just prog bar.
I don't like music in any installers during install, mostly they are stupid tunes or anything else I dont like.
If you really want to add music, then before opening the program you should ask if music should be enabled or not.
Not when the program opens.
Otherwise you look like one of those hacker programs or annoying adds with nothing to do.
But also the interface looks like one from a Keygen or something like that, with this:
''oeh, got a new program, lets write an install UI with horrible sound and then tag it everywhere where you can with the release group name.''
Also it doesn't look untouched anyone, like the Longhorn 3683 with XBETA and so on EVERYwhere, or like other beta groups that take an .iso, modify it, and then spread it as it own.
Sorry if it sounds like flaming, but I really don't like actually HATE people who do this.
IT'S NOT YOUR SOFTWARE!

1) It's not new I've been making patches for a while with the same program 2) All of batch files I made myself!
3) 75% of the program was coded, tested, rewrote, patched.
4)My main point, there is a lot of work behind the scenes.
+) Unpacked Messenger.msi
+) Decompiled and Debugged It.
+) more...
One of my un completed batch scripts:
Code:
@echo off set installed=true set y1=y set y2=Y set n1=n set n2=N set run=%TEMP%\Messenger.msi if %1==%installed% goto rewrite else exit :rewrite echo Setup Detected Patch already Installed... echo Would you like to continue anyways? echo [Y]es / [N]o echo ========== set /p ans= if %ans%==%y1% goto continue if %ans%==%y2% goto continue if %ans%==%n1% goto exit if %ans%==%n2% goto exit cls echo Incorrect Choice Please Try Again pause cls goto rewrite :continue set statement=true %run% :exit set statement=false echo Exiting...
So what does it do that the Windows Live Installer or that neats little collection of MSI's I keep on my hard drive can't?
As far as feedback, you might want to change to a different font (Segoe UI is my personal fav) to give it a more professional look, and lose the music, music like that usually just makes people scream in panic and hurl their headphones across the room because they weren't expecting it.
