We need to bring back the xpiinstall.exe. Here's an email exchange betweem Many, myself and others: --------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Bill This applies to Windows system. Further down the thread, I had sent this to Calvin: The xpiinstall.exe is invoked through this scenario: 1) User is on a Firefox/Mozilla browser and does not have the Java plugin 2) User goes to a web page that requires the Java plugin; User is told through a browser info bar, that the page requires the missing plugin; there is a link to get the missing plugin 3) If user chooses to get the missing plugin (in this case Java), the browser presents a link to the xpiinstall.exe. In this way we are able to distinguish between JRE downloads that come through FF browser.
