We need to bring back the xpiinstall.exe. Here's an email exchange betweem Many, myself and others:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Bill
This applies to Windows system.
Further down the thread, I had sent this to Calvin:
The xpiinstall.exe is invoked through this scenario:
1) User is on a Firefox/Mozilla browser and does not have the Java plugin
2) User goes to a web page that requires the Java plugin;
User is told through a browser info bar, that the page requires the missing plugin; there is a link to get the missing plugin
3) If user chooses to get the missing plugin (in this case Java), the browser presents a link to the xpiinstall.exe.
In this way we are able to distinguish between JRE downloads that come through FF browser.
