Scripting an MSI install that creates a process, not an application

So I am skulking around my KACE console trying to see how to deploy an MSI that installs a process rather than an application. It is already running on one machine on our network, however I am not able to find a way to build an MSI installer for it since it's not listed in the software inventory of the node, but under its processes. The process is a security measure that works in concert with our network firewall.

 

Thanks for any and all help!

Why don't you try this with VBScript?

If it was me, I'd install it via an MSI as a system service (to stop users killing the process), maybe using SRVANY. You can set the MSI to start the service as part of the installation.
