Just to make you aware that if your Advanced Client Installation is
failing from the login script it could well be due to your users having
Local Admin rights.

Check the Capinst.log on the client machine and it might indicate that
the user is a Local admin and attempting to install.

If thats the case and the user doesn`t have domain admin rights aswell
it will fail.
