This is a silent installer for the SeaMonkey Suite, the successor of the Mozilla suite.

<package
    id="seamonkey"
    name="Seamonkey Suite"
    revision="101"
    reboot="false"
    execute="once"
    priority="10">
    <install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\SeaMonkey\seamonkey-1.0.1.de-AT.win32.installer.exe" -ms -ira' />
    <remove cmd='%SYSTEMROOT%\SeaMonkeyUninstall.exe -ms' />
</package>

Please note that I use execute="once" instead of any uninstall check. Perhaps you might want to use this instead:

<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Mozilla SeaMonkey" />

If you want to make SeaMonkey the standard browser include an additional install command in the package definition:

<install cmd='%SOFTWARE%\SeaMonkey\Set_Seamonkey_as_default.cmd' />

Where Set_Seamonkey_as_default.cmd is :

"%ProgramFiles%\SeaMonkey\seamonkey.exe" -CreateProfile default
"%ProgramFiles%\SeaMonkey\seamonkey.exe" -setDefaultBrowser -silent

This will of course create a SeaMonkey dummy profile in the systems account windows profile, but I can life with that.


Alternative Method

Unzip the seamonkey-1.x.x.de-AT.win32.installer.exe with a tool like 7-zip to a folder. In this folder edit the config.ini for your needs, especially the sections [General] and [Component Navigator]

[General]
; Run Mode values:
Run Mode=Silent
[Component Navigator]
Attributes=SELECTED|FORCE_UPGRADE

Adjust the foldername of "seamonkey_extracted" and "c:\temp" to use a package like the one below, which also speeds up installing and upgrading.

<packages>
<package
   id="seamonkey"
   name="Seamonkey 1.1.8"
   revision="5"
   reboot="false"
   priority="3">
   <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="SeaMonkey (1.1.8)" />
   <install cmd='cmd /C xcopy "%SOFTWARE%\seamonkey_extracted" c:\temp /S /Y'/>
   <install cmd='cmd /C c:\temp\setup.exe'/>
   <upgrade cmd='cmd /C xcopy "%SOFTWARE%\seamonkey_extracted" c:\temp /S /Y'/>
   <upgrade cmd='cmd /C c:\temp\setup.exe'/>
   <remove cmd='%SYSTEMROOT%\SeaMonkeyUninstall.exe -ms' />
</package>
</packages>
