1.Create a shared folder on hard drive of domain controller.
Open the Administrative Tools, "Active directory Users and
Computers".
2. Select the root of your domain, domain name. OK
Since you want to install this across the domain I would recommend this.
And not for a specific OU or group.
3. Click on 'Edit' on Group Policy tab.
This will give you a computer configuration
and User configuration.
Select the 'Software Setting under the Computer Configuration and then
software installation.
Next, Select 'Action, New, Package. Now browse to the shared folder your program is
in. Select the 'msi' install package.
You will see a 'Deploy Software" dialog. Seclect Published.
Close all the windows.
4. Your program will apear the next time users log on.

I'm familiar with this process, but who said I had an MSI file? And how can I create one? The only tool i have is WinInstall LE and it doesn't seem to want to install a plugin that has no setup.exe....
Can anyone create an MSi for me?
MSI files are created with SMS installer, a very worthwhile tool for WIN networks. You might investigate it. (not trolling for points, just answering your question about MSI.)
To create an MSI file for you, one would need the flash plug in setup files.

Maybe try a 'Zap' text file deployment.
If that doesn't work the only other methods maybe visiting each desktop or emailing the
web address for downloading to each node.
Just exploring two of the possibilities.
