    hey prevx users/staff,

    i used to use prevx 1.0.2 build 123 with ZERO problems, however.......

    after updating to 1.0.2 build 127, prevx fails to load and i just get the flashing envelope,

    any ideas?

    btw: this is the vista beta version.

    nevermind, the repair feature seems to have fixed it.

    however, maybe the staff should look into their auto updating, it doesnt look 100% to me.

    The manual built in update does nothing for me... no update to 127...

    IS this a new build ( ie build 127) ??
    I have had no auto update since 112
    I recall that the 123 build did not need to be installed due to minor changes however the 127 release seems to have some more significant changes
    So do we wait for autoupdate or have to go and get this ?

    Hi, prevx users:

    The build in question was listed here http://www.majorgeeks.com/Prevx_d5293.html more than TWO WEEKS ago.

    Different time zone (universe vs earth ?)

    The product is matured and its update is ever greened. :-*

    I have ditched Prevx from my laptops after almost one year solid loyal following (not any more). Good luck guys.

    You haven't got the update just because you're using Windows XP. We've already released the update only for Windows Vista users.

    Installer is online since a lot, for the people who want to manually install it instead of waiting the update.

    im a vista user, and got the same error as hermes.

    i re-downloaded the package from the website, and used the 'repair' feature and it fixed it all.

    but still, it shouldnt have to be done.
