SYMPTOMS

Microsoft Outlook 98 in Silent Installation mode doesn't prompt you prior to restarting the computer.

CAUSE

This is by design. When installing Outlook you are required to restart the computer.

MORE INFORMATION

During Stage 3 of the Outlook Deployment Kit wizard, on the window titled "Select Install and Hide Icons", if you click to select "Install package silently", Outlook will be installed in silent mode with no user input. When you run a silent installation of Outlook you will not be prompted to restart the computer. The computer will restart regardless of what you are doing. You should quit any programs before you start the installation process.
