prerequisites

Hi Everyone,

My installshield project uses custom prerequisites to install .Net Framework 4.0 Client Profile and Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 client package.

I want to let clients to donwload .Net Framework and Sync Framework directly from the Internet so that our installer is small. But I cant see a way to this.

If you could give some advices or example, it would be most appreciated.

Cheers
