Hi there,

could someone please explain why there's an uninstall command 
(<install cmd='%SOFTWARE%\flash\uninstall_flash_player.exe -
uninstall'><exit code='any' /></install>) in the code for WPKG 
installer for Internet Explorer on http://wpkg.org/Flash_Player (line 
16)?

Guess it shall remove older FlashPlayer versions before installing a 
new one. But updating works also without removing an older version 
first. And it seems that uninstall_flash_player.exe is removing both 
(IE and Forefox) FlashPlayer versions, so it affects also FlashPlayer 
installation for Firefox...

Anyway, a short explanation would be appreciated :-)

Thank you
