* Quotes will be added when possible when updating.
* Main command string gadget updated immensely.
* Updated all the possible alert() call with my new Alert() that uses
the built-in windows for a better look and customization, more buttons
possible, self-closing after a set time, etc.
* Your chosen options and config files are now remembered and loaded the
next time WPI is started. Since it is saved in a reg key, this only
works from the desktop. Otherwise you still have to use command line
args to specify other files.
* Fixed a bug with "Default install path" not being honored.
* Fixed some tiny bugs in Options Wizard.
* Occasionally USSF would erase the command line. It seems to always be
at the first run. Now WPI runs it when first open Config Wizard to get
it "initialized" properly. No guarantee it will fix the problem.

* Made Install Order gadget only accept numbers.
* Removed tabs skin Vista Default Dark. Use DHX Black instead.

* Fixed a few bugs when saving a totally blank config.
* New option: Options -> General -> Verify before installing if started
from harddrive. If checked, will verify that you really want to do an
install process if started from harddrive. Will not ask, even if
checked, if started from cd/dvd. Prevent accidental installs when
editting config.
* When hit Abort in the installer, there is now an option, Open WPI,
that will abort the installer and re-open WPI.
* Improved the way the installer aborts when user halts the install
process. It used to finish all the commands in the current item. Now
it stops immediately.
* Some virus scanners were complaining that USSF is a virus. It is not.
It has been recompiled without UPX compression and can be decompiled for
inspection.
* Added a check so can't switch to/from Options/Config editors directly
without closing the editor first.
* Changed the way path variables are handled a little. %root% or
%root%\ and %cdrom% or %cdrom%\ are acceptable now.
* Fixed Execute Before/After to properly set paths (%wpipath%, %root%)
and quotes.
* The shell window is now not shown (flashed) for DOS commands and
RegEdit entries.
* Took out XML error message when doing Internet check at startup.
* Updated code for all possible resolutions for ResChange.
* By pure chance, midiboy needed to turn on script debugging in IE to
send me a bug report. By doing this, it cured the problem of Office
causing WPI to do an internal restart. Now WPI checks 2 reg keys and
turns debugging on when started, closes itself, re-launches itself to
let reg keys take affect, and back off if that was the original state
when exits. This may also cure other mysterious anomolies people have
encountered.
NOTE: The above only works on the desktop. When starting at RunOnceEx
you must change the reg keys before WPI is started. The scripts and
launchers are provided on the forum.
* Custom fonts placed in the theme folder will now be installed
automatically. Any number of fonts may be added, but they must occur
between the theme version line and <title> line:
<meta content="WPI Theme 7.0+">
<meta font="myfontname.ttf">
<title>Windows Post-Install Wizard</title>
* Fixed 2 bugs dealing with random theme selection. Windows theme can
now be deleted.
* Added Shuffle to audio player.
* Added to installer window: Count up timer; current item number of
total number of items (5/25); computer name and user name.
* Cleaned up the reboot code that had some code that was no longer
needed, changed the way the log file was written, and several other
small updates. This should prevent the installer from hanging on the
"Could not open rb_config.js" error message.
* Fixed a bug in the installer that would show the category line again
after a reboot.
* Now using JavaScript to install fonts internally. In the Tools
folder, Fonts/fontinst.exe and Fonts/fontinst.inf have been removed and
the Fonts folder moved to Graphics/Fonts. All the fonts in this folder
will be installed if Tools -> Install fonts is checked.
* getOSver() returns 08 for Server 2008.
* Updated getOSver(), getOSeditionID() and getSPver() checks by using
WMI.
* Updated the cdrom check by using WMI.
* Added function getFirewallProduct()
Usage: getFirewallProduct()==""
Returns: name of firewall software/hardware registered with Windows
Security Center.
* Added function getAntiVirusProduct()
Usage: getAntiVirusProduct()=="AVG Anti-Virus Free"
Returns: name of antivirus software registered with Windows Security
Center.
* Got the grid colors to alternate properly and highlight the item that
is being hovered over.

========================================================================
* Dynaletik figured out the online update check. I was using google.com
for the test, but in Germany, and probably a few other countries, it
gets redirected, in his case to google.de. Therefore, the response
would not come back properly and would fail. Now I am using
www.wpiw.net.
* Dynaletik updated German manual some more.

* Russian language file and manual written by stasys44.
* Spanish language file updated by Alanparson.

fully loaded.
Use this with caution:
1) Install Windows, WPI is launched before desktop loaded,
timer counts down or Begin Install, desktop loads, installation starts.
2) WPI started from desktop, timer counts down or Begin Install,
WPI closes, installation will not start until system rebooted and the
desktop loaded.
