Anyone know how to accomplish this ?
unattended.txt allows you to "disable visual access" to Outlook and
Messenger :-( They are still there and workable, all what happens is that
the Messenger does not start automatically and that Outlook's icon is not
in the start menu. But when you apply SP2, these settings are ignored,
e.g. I had re-enable the messenger, then re-disable it, in order to have
it vanish again.
There used to be a MS KB article Q263837, describing the procedure to
remove outlook express, however, I cannot locate it anymore.
It listed the files, directories and registry keys to remove.
I crafted a perl script for this, but the windows file protection spins up
and has to be handled interactively currently.
It's basically so:
delFile( qw(inetcomm.dll msoeacct.dll msoert2.dll msoe.dll msoeres.dll
msimn.exe oeimport.dll oemiglib.dll oemig50.exe setup50.exe wab.exe
wabfind.dll wabimp.dll wabmig.exe csapi3t1.dll directdb.dll wab32.dll
wab32res.dll) );
delKey($ms, "Outlook Express/", "WAB/");
delKey($Registry->{"CUser/"}, "Identities/"),
delKey($Registry->{"CUser/Software/Microsoft/"}, "Outlook Express/",
"WAB/");
The files may be located in %ProgramFiles%\Outlook Express, as well as,
%windir%\system32\dllcache and any servicepack directory ready to restore
by the WFP.
