Default Launch Scripts - Run Before Launching

Here's the scenario:

NetWare Server hosting Zenworks = Ver. 5.1 Sp6
Zenworks For Desktops version = 4
Workstation OS = Win 2000 Pro and WinXP Pro

Our company needs every user to be able to view a file which can only be viewed in Quicktime. We have found a third party minimum install (no fancy toolbars, no itunes etc.) of Quicktime which servers our purpose nicely.

A few users already have a manually installed Quicktime (latest version) on their desktops. All users in the company do not have Internet access as per Company policy.

I have created a NAL object for the minimum install of QuickTime which is ver. 6.3 but I do not want it to be inadvertently deployed to users who already have the manually installed latest version.

If I am correct I should be able to use the Run Before Launching script option to do this. I know I could use the DOS "IF Exist" command to look for the existence of Quicktime on the local drive. But I don't know what command to use to prevent the NAL object from launching if Quicktime is already installed.

I would greatly appreciate any ideas in this regard.

Thanks very much in advance,
