Software Deployment

Wow, that's a major drawback from Macrovision's side.
What in h*ll would be the benefit from removing them, one could only guess [:'(]

I guess you would have to find them from some other place or by downloading evaluation versions of their products as these installs different versions of the merge modules.

If I recall from an old post discussion we had way back regarding using the InstallShield engine merge modules by those that hadn't payed for their product, I think that someone spoke with IS/Macrovision regarding this and they said it out loud that that isn't allowed or breaking their license agreement or whatever phrase they now used.

Well, the licensing argument doesn't really hold water since the source product is years old and other, more recent MMs are still available for d/l from the site. I think someone simply moved or deleted them and no-one's told them yet.

They are back up again :)
