script help

I'm looking for a script that can install a set of software packages when a user logins.Does anybody know any scripts that can do this? I have a few exe's I'm trying to push out to a group of users.

I would but the software I'm trying to deploy is an .exe not an .msi file.

Create a .zap file. Scroll a little over halfway down: Packaging Software for Deployment: Group Policy

Can you not just add something like these to their logon script? This is assuming you are using logon scripts...

setup.exe /q
setup.exe /qn
setup.exe /silent
setup.exe /s
setup.exe /NoUserInput
setup.exe /unattended
setup.exe /CreateAnswerFile
setup.exe /quiet

Do all the users have the necessary rights to install software on their workstations?
Are the setup programs intelligent enough not to do weird things if the software is already installed? Possibly by another user that uses that workstation?
