Please comment in the Talk page (use the Discussion tab above)

IMPORTANT:
DO NOT MIX command line options from different lines below (e.g. don't mix /S with /INI, etc.)
The account performing the installation will require administrative privileges to properly complete the installation.

<path to setup executable> [/S] | [/D=<full path to installation directory>]

note: /S is broken in Firefox 3.5 through Firefox 4.0 - bug 592414
<path to setup executable> [/INI=<full path to configuration ini file>]
<path to setup executable> [-ms]

Silent install / uninstall:

When specifying a configuration ini file the installer will always run silently. When specifying a Configuration ini file other command line switches should not be specified and may have unexpected results
/INI=<full path to configuration ini file>
