Stage 1: Gathering Information

In this stage of running the Internet Explorer 7 Customization Wizard, you are prompted for basic information about the type and scope of the custom package for installing and configuring Windows Internet Explorer 7.

This stage contains the following pages:

  • File Locations. Specify the location where the custom package will be saved. Make sure the location or folder that you choose is secure.

  • Platform Selection. Specify the operating system and processor architecture on which the custom package will be deployed. This version of Internet Explorer Administration Kit supports x86-based and x64-based versions of Windows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2), Windows Server 2003, and Windows Vista. You must create a separate package for each operating system.

  • Language Selection. Specify the language for the custom browser. You must create a separate package for each language of Internet Explorer that you want to provide.

  • Media Selection. Select the media format or formats that you want to use to distribute the custom browser. This dialog box is also where you can choose to create a configuration-only package to update browsers that have already been deployed in your organization.

  • Feature Selection. Select the browser features that you want to customize for the package. The features that are offered differ depending on the version of Internet Explorer Administration Kit 7 that you selected during installation — Internet service provider (ISP), Internet content provider (ICP), or Corporate version.

Note

To properly run Internet Explorer Administration Kit 7, you must have Windows Internet Explorer 7 installed.
