Downloading Quickplace controls directly from the server

The first thing anyone can do is the quick grab of the controls through HTTP browsing.  Lotus provides a nice chart showing the location:

The long run is to have some back end script for locked-down users actually extract the pieces of the cab file and place the DLL on their system.  Not a pleasant experience but just what we had to deal with.  Hence the reason for this posting.  The users could not accept the controls themselves so an alternate way to push them out had to e designed.  Lotus addressed just that with technote #1214819.
