error: Server Connection Failure

That's what it syays when I try to update... instantly... no connection attempt observed by firewall or Sysinternals.com Process Explorer

No further info...

multiple reinstalls

same issue

Twice it nuked my internet connection...

I traced it to IMON...
unregistering IMON didn't help
NOD uninstall didn't help

finally had to use WinSockXP fix from softpedia.com

any clues

 

Hi,

I'm afraid that I don't have the answer, but a few questions:

1.
Did it only happen when you try to update NOD32 ?

2.
Have you tried to click the Repair Now button in IMON Setup > Miscellaneous ?
Quotes:
Automatically detect changes in network configuration and repair necessary settings - if enabled, IMON will try to repair the LSP chain in order to ensure proper functionality of the network and mail scanner. If IMON keeps repairing configuration on system startup due to another program utilizing the same technique, turn this option off. Click Repair now to force IMON repair network configuration.
- end quotes -

 

Hi FanJ
Long time no see... err... chat?... umm... discussion?...uuhhh.... I'll find a more suitable word soon. promise.

1. yes. Only for updates... however, I found my Internet connection nuked twice out of 20 or so restarts..

2. No.
I'll do the "repair" thingy when i reinstall.

I'll report back soon, sarge!

 

Hi no13

Maybe you could also try to remove the checkmark in that box "Automatically detect changes in network configuration and repair necessary settings" and see whether that might help.

No other programs "blocking" something?

Is your software firewall maybe blocking access to beta25.eset.com (that's where my beta-version gets its updates from)?

LOL

Warm regards, Jan.

 

no... and no.
let's see... tomorrow is a new day, and my butt hurts for today

Guess I'll need a strong batch of mom's spiced tea for ths, huh?

 

But do take some Butterscotch too

 

Well... i did it... thanks to Fan for help

Anyone got any Nut Butterscotch IceCream? I forgot to order last night

Must... celebrate... fairly... happy... must... not... resist....

Thanks FanJ

 

Congrats no13
I'm very happy you were able to solve it !
Was it that "Repair Now" that did the trick?

LOL, don't forget that nice Nut Butterscotch IceCream tomorrow

Cheers, Jan.
