My Blink 4.2.3 no longer completes initializing on Windows 7 Beta, preventing me from updating to 4.2.4 as well as accessing the Home screen. Same problem before, and after today's Windows 7 Patch from Microsoft.   I run the separate Auto-Update Tool from the Programs menu, and it complains that the new Blink AV Engine update is not ...

[quote user="spare"] A ha I just checked a different post on a serial number problem and it referenced Blink going through IE. I checked my IE ( because I only use Firefox) and discovered it does not connect either. I am going to try and find out why and how to fix it. Any suggestions? [/quote] I missed this the first time.  If ...

There are many vertical apps, as well as crapware, that install MS SQL Server Express.  Some do it well, allowing you to see and uninstall MS SQL Server Express from Add/Remove Programs, and others hide it to prevent having their implementation disabled. http://www.microsoft.com/Sqlserver/2005/en/us/express.aspx You can look in ...

Spare, you are in good hands with eEye's tech support, but I had some other suggestions to follow after you provide them the log. 1.  Use the Norton Removal Tool to remove all traces of that Symantec crap.   http://service1.symantec.com/Support/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039 2.  Run a registry cleaner like CCleaner ...

Spare, I think the problems are a little more fundamental, perhaps relating to a firewall, than related to Blink.  Let's review: XP computer: now at girlfriend's house Blink works OK network printer issue Vista computer: at your house used to have Norton 360 not sure about your connectivity to Internet ...

VirtualBox has now updated to 2.1.2 with formal support for Windows 7 Beta.  I did not rebuild my VM from scratch to see if the issues I saw earlier changed.  I simply updated my VM software to 2.1.2 and Blink continues to run successfully on W7 Beta. http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog [quote user="Ziad"] Good News. ...

I had the same issue this week on an accountant's HP Pavilion laptop with Vista Home Premium SP1.   I thought it was because his update of Quickbooks Pro 2008 was corrupted  - that maybe it was the source of the VB6 files.  But after correcting the problem - updating his QBPro, QB Premiere Multicurrency and Simply ...

[quote user="neatchee"] Still no luck getting the Blink container running on Windows 7 Beta x64 [/quote] OK, my report was on the 32-bit Windows 7 Beta, as I have the Core Duo, not Core2Duo in my computer.

I think I can help again here. Run the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer:  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/cc184924.aspx Not only will it sometimes identify why certain patches are not installing, but it also gives an alternate view of vulnerabilities to Blink and Secunia. Let us know how it goes. Open question: Are ...

I think I can help, rhkohl. Run the Norton Removal Tool from http://service1.symantec.com/Support/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039  It is pretty effective at removing remaining traces of Norton/Symantec software.  It is often as embedded as a rootkit. Use a registry cleaner like CCleaner - after using the removal tool and ...
