    Can someone tell me if this is possible and if so how to do it.

    I want to apply a patch to all machines in the company without visiting each one , its just a basic .exe file

    So can i add that to the logon script so that it installs when everyone logs in ? And have it run silently so that users wont have to click next etc ?

    If this is possible what line would i have to add to the script ?

    I don't know all the details but here's what I think.

    On the domain controller implement a group policy and apply it to the machines in the network.
    The policy should tell the clients to run a logon script.
    Once it has run successfully on the client machine drop a flag or semaphore or something so that next time they log on they won't reinstall the util or whatever a second time.
    In fact you could push info to a central location after install to know which PCs have installed successfully.
    Then you can remove the group policy.

    Note that after you apply a policy a client might not pick it up instantly on next boot, normally it's up to 4 OS boots or so.
