My organization is currently using IE 5.5 sp2. I want to install the latest Q fix automatically without any user intervention. There is a /Q option which does a quiet installation however when it is done, it asks if you want to reboot. Is there away to automatically answer yes or no without user intervention?

The Hot Fix utility named "Qchain.exe" from Microsoft just may be what you are looking for. It allows you to apply multiple hot fixes without rebooting, or being prompted for a reboot. It just may be applicable for just one applied hot fix on IE. Will your method of deployment be manual or in the form of a logon script? Qchain is a command line utility that works well when put into a logon script, but run it on some test machines if you plan on applying this hot fix on over 20-50 computers. Good Luck!
