It means the installer won't show the normal messages and options to choose where to install, whether to install one or both programs, etc -- it just installs everything to the usual places without asking.

Download the update from the
Pentax site, and save it to the Desktop. If your browser saves it somewhere else, like in My Documents or a Downloads folder, move it to the Desktop.
Go to Start->Run and enter this:
cmd
A command prompt window should open. In it, enter this to point it to the desktop:
cd Desktop
Now enter the name of the file, followed by a space, and "/s". At the time I write this, the version on the web site is 3.61, so when you enter it properly it should look like this:
pblv0361 /s
or like this:
pblv0361.exe /s
After entering that, it should bring up the installer window. When it's done, you'll find the two programs in the usual place on the Start menu.
