Using WPS v7.0 I followed the steps detailed above by jphillips, BEPhipps, xltel. I was still getting an dialogue box at the end of the install generated by the rundll32 exe - even though the install worked fine and CutePDF operated just as in a manual install! I got round this by adding the /q switch to the command detailed in BEPhipp's step 8.
Easy silent install:
CuteWriter.exe /verysilent /no3d
The "no3d" command prevents installation of Ask toolbar and homepage, etc.
