Allowing Domino Web Access or iNotes 7 to be installed for All Users through Sysprep on Windows 7

On Windows XP it was easy to add add-ons to Internet Explorer and have them run for all users the same way they ran in the Administrator profile.  Because Windows 7 removed this Copy To profile feature it is necessary to make changes to the Sysprep unattend file to allow IE Add-ons to be trusted for all users.  To do this for Domino Web Access/iNotes for Lotus Notes 6 or 7 follow this guide:

1. Navigate to your Lotus Notes web portal for Webmail.

2. When prompted, install the Domino Web Access ActiveX control but on the installation box press the >> button that faces down.  This will present you with a few options for installation, select "Always Install software from International Business Machine Corporation" and then click Install.

3. Next go to Tools>Manage Add-ons in IE8 and select the "Domino Web Access 7 Control" addon.  On the bottom pane there will be a link that says "More Information"  select this.  On the dialoge pop up press "Allow on All Sites" and then make a note of the "Class ID" on this information screen.  This number will be added to the trusted IE Add-ons on the Sysprep unattend file.

4. Finish making your Windows 7 Image and when it is time to make your answer file add the following settings to it to allow the DWA/iNotes addon.  Under Components, right-click "[platform]_Microsoft-Windows-IE-InternetExplorer_neutral" and select "Add to pass 4 specialize"  Under the PreApprovedAddons section right click the icon and select "Add new Addon GUID".  On the left side of the screen type in the number you got from the "More Information" section of the DWA/iNotes addon WITHOUT SPACES.

5. Save your answer file, run Sysprep and now DWA/iNotes will run for users without Administrative permissions to install the Addon.  The Webmail for Lotus will run without any pop-ups to the end user.
