From within Add/Remove Programs if you select Add New Programs there is an option to Add Programs from your network. There is also a window below that that should show the different programs available on the network. I was wondering how to get my network application setup's available in this window.

The only way to accomplish this is by publishing a software installation package (.msi) or ZAP file through group policies on a Win2K server. The procedure is too long to spell out here (it runs several pages in my favorite reference book). Most MSsoftware comes with .msi packages. You can also create them with third-party software.

A ZAP file is basically a script that points to a setup program for software that doesn't come with .msi packages.
