Windows XP >> Uninstall Brightmail plugin silently with msiexec doesnt work? I've tried using this format to remove this program..

msiexec /x "{GUID HERE}" /quiet

This doesnt work..

If you take off the /quiet.. it pops up asking if you want to
uninstall the plugin..

If you put the /quiet on.. it will briefly show that pop up window
then disappear, but the app isnt uninstalled...

I really need a way to remove this app from multiple computers (using
sms 2003) with this command line, so users aren't prompted or see
anything related to it...

Any thoughts out there?

The command you're running above won't work if the logged in user doesn't
have sufficient permissions on the computer. I would post this in an SMS
group for more help.
