beats Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 (edited) [Release] avast! Home Edition v4.8.1356.0 (INT)avast! Home Edition - Free Antivirus represents the best FREE antivirus protection currently available on the market. This edition is FREE OF CHARGE for non-commercial & home use only. Platform: Win2k, WinXP, Vista & Win7 (x86)Author: ALWIL SoftwareLicense: Free for non-commercial & home use (but needs a personal license key)Website: http://www.avast.com---About this release:- As requested by Kees030.- Custom built MSI, suitable for AD deployment, supports Admin Setup (/a) and is repairable.- Despite the size, this is a light version, only the basic services are activated. You can configure/enable more stuff yourself afterwards with the configuration GUI.- Has locale support, but I have limited it to ENU, ESN, FRA, GER, ITA and NLD due to file size. More languages can be added afterwards with the configuration GUI. With all available languages and help files etc installed, this package would be well over 150MB! - This package installs services, mini drivers, etc, which have all been suppressed, so it requires a reboot to be fully functional.- Some redundant shortcuts have been removed.- Needs a (free) license, so you have to register it within 60 days after installation.- 7-Zip SVCPACK Addon (for switchless installer, just extract it from the archive).NotesIf the tray icon displays a red cross, there was probably no internet connection available after the first reboot. Run the entries below to fix it, because the entries under RunOnce are only executed once.%ProgramFiles%\Alwil Software\Avast4\Setup\avast.setup -update%ProgramFiles%\Alwil Software\Avast4\VisthUpd.exeYou can also execute this part later, by using the Tray Icon's context menu and selecting "program updates" and "virus definition updates".Avast has hard coded routines that puts its own entry in Add/Remove. To remove this MSI (after uninstalling Avast with its own entry) use:msiexec /x {DA91BA16-F002-4FB8-991F-4A3B368EA62F} /qnSince two entries in Add/Remove look silly, the entry of this MSI is 'hidden'. Changelogv1 - Initial release.v2 - Fixed some Tray Icon issues, added Registration and Tray Icon icons, added RunOnce keys for virus definition and avast! program updates, now hides the MSI from Add/Remove.7-Zip SFX Code:;!@Install@!UTF-8!GUIMode="2"RunProgram="Avast.msi /qb /norestart";!@InstallEnd@!Addon Details (RVMi and nLite compatible):--OFFLINE-- Edited November 17, 2009 by beats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beats Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) Updated. Contains some fixes (see notes in OP).Why an English only version? Rado354 maintains an English-only Avast addon already. I made this upon request because there is no INT available from ALWIL.

beats Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 Because avast fixed silent installations for the Home Edition again, I don't see the point maintaining this MSI anymore. However, I've put up a tutorial to make your own localized version, see: [Tutorial] avast! Home Edition 4.8.x switchless installer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
