install screensaver button

Question

I am working on a CD project and one of the features is a
"Wildlife Screensaver". I am using Flash MX. I have the screensaver
saved as wildlife.scr (windows). I now want to have a button that
says "Install Screensaver" and thus, when pressed, automatically
puts the wildlife.scr in the appropriate WINDOWS directory and sets
it as the default screensaver.

I know this can be done, but not sure how to make the action
script work. Can anyone help?

(I also want to create a simular script to install the
instance of a bitmap as the desktop images... any thoughts?)

Thanks in advance.

you can't do this with as2 alone. you can use a third partyapp (like flash jestor or zinc, but they cost $). you can alsoprobably do this with adobe air and the beta is free.
