WLM Wave 3 Beta: Extracting MSI Package

Hi,

Does anyone know of any way to extract the MSI package used for installing
WLM and Windows Live Signin Assistant?
I currently deploy WLM via GPO but this is the previous version - I'd like
to be able to create new GPO for the Beta, however I can't see where the
MSI file gets extracted to during download and installation?

Thanks
Richard
