    Hi, i have just tried installing Dr Web on windows vista sp1, connected via a router.

    When i reboot i have lost my internet connection.
    When checking the settings everything seems fine except for IPV6 which says limited connection.

    Disabling and re enabling does not help, windows caanot find a solution when trying a repair.

    I disabled the Windows firewall as well but no luck :(

    As i have lost the internet connection i cannot register to download a demo key through Dr Web.

    I have now uninstalled The Dr and my internet is back!

    Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem may be o_O?
    Thanks :thumb:

    EDIT:
    I should add that prior to installation i had completely removed KIS.

    drweb has zero connection with your home connection.

    however, kaspersky does.

    I was going to say that I didnt think Dr Web has anything to do with your connection.

    I mean he needs to look at other things, not Dr Web. It would not do this.

    Thats strange then because i have just tried installing again, and when it comes to the part where i either ask for a demo key or input a license key then my internet connection has gone.

    I would use CCleaner and go in and delete all registry keys associated with Kaspersky.

    Thanks for trying to help :)

    I think, if you install drweb and then run spiderml.exe -remove, that will allow you to use drweb (without e-mail monitor) and keep the Internet connected. But I'd like to know why that happened on your machine. Is it any networking software installed on it you can recall?

    By the way, maybe Vista Parental Control is on?

    Hi sergeyko

    I will give that a try shortly, i am just downloading drweb again incase the file was corrupt somehow.

    Vista parental control is off and i dint ever recall having any networking software installed as i have no home network.

    I reinstalled again after re downloading Dr Web, no internet connection.
    After then removing spidermail i can now confirm that i now have my internet connection back, and i have obtained a demo license and am currently performing a scan.

    The only question now is why does spidermail block my internet connection?

    Could you please run in command line:
    reg export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2 tcp.txt

    and show its content?

    Just tried this and nothing happens.
    I have had a look in the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2
    And the following attachment is what is found if this helps any.

    Tony

    1. Open CMD
    2. type "reg export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2 tcp.txt" (WITHOUT THE SPEECHMARKS)

    3. locate tcp.txt and open it
    4. copy and past the text here

    you should now be seeing the text that sergey wants, should be lots of digits, and ALOT of them.

    but of course, this is off topic Tony.

    Still no reply, although that is understandable as it is the weekend and sergeyko may even be away on an easter break.

    From looking at the support page, the only place to ask for help for a demo version is on the Dr.Web forum, i have posted there but there does not seem to be any activity on the english forum.

    It seems strange that is the way to provide support for a demo and potential customers.

    sorry to hear Tony, but as you rightly said.. Sergey was offering help through wilders, and its no Easter (which sucks for you and this problem :) )

    i suggest you,

    http://bugs.drweb.com

    register / login and Post.

    state your problem, mention that Sergey has asked for this txt file, and also attach the file.
