Is that separate from the freenetlauncher.exe? > Did you put any thought into how to handle existing installations > without the tray manager?

Honestly, adding the tray manager would be easy enough for installations that have been done with the new wininstaller you created, but older installs won't work because they are lacking installid.dat (although I could probably create it, hmm...) The other issue I have is adding a prompt will change the default function of the script so if someone has a cron job it will hang waiting for input. If people don't think that breaking this is a problem I will do it. I see you are now installing via the system account instead of creating a user called "freenet", how does this affect my work? > Though...

The main trouble we are going to have is with installations that were done previously, user account issue, lack of installid.dat, etc...
