Many companys use KIX scripting to update there workstations with hotfixes and service packs. To update workstations with different versions of IE you must type a lot. Maybe you can make an macro fot this.

With the tools out there - Altiris Mobile Automation KiXSMS SUS HFNETCHK MSBSA
Do we need to add bloat to the KiXtart code?
For example, running @UPDATEWINDOWSWITHSPx would have to query what is installed on the system, go to a website (or local repository), pull down the code, and install it. What about locked down users?

he is probably just referring to a macro that enums: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components looking for IE hotfixes typically Qxxxxxx
hopefully MS will eventually start making the IE patches go in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates like the other updates...

Hello everyone,
I shall try to specify my request for an macro to identify the installed version of Internet Explorer. What I meant is the following:
For the installed operating system you have the macro @ProductType. So maybe it is possible to make an macro wich identifies the installed Internet Explorer browser. For example @IE = "Internet Explorer 5.5".
I hope my request is more clearly right know.
Kinds regards,

What i meam is that you have different type of Internet Explorer browser version. For example:
Internet Explorer 6 for Windows XP Internet Explorer 6 SP-1 Internet Explorer 5.5 with SP-2 Internet Explorer 5.5 Internet Explorer 5.01
Microsoft released different updates/hotfixes for the blaster worm. If you would like to install these patches with a KIX logon script it's a problem. You cannot find the right information with one READVALUE.
