Bug magnet 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2010 Hi all, i have been using the Freeware version for years now and have never had reason to complain or worry, so much so it must be the first tool i have downloaded that didn't require serveilance and constant help requests through a forum. Untill now that is. About a week ago everything just stopped working. I have not installed anything new for months as i work with tools i have known for years. I have tried to overcome this myself through using these posts and the info within: [url="http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/lofiversion/index.php/t26559.html"]http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/lofiversion...php/t26559.html[/url] [url="http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/index.php?showtopic=25456"]http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/index.php?showtopic=25456[/url] but im afraid to say that nothing works. When going into 'services.msc' i see that the automatic is already activated and when i try to start the service i get this message error 1067 Thanks in advance for any pointers. I really don't want to find another product as i like this one and obviously i haven't got hours to spend looking and testing different options. So i will give it a short while hoping for a solution before googling for something else as i really don't like leaving my machine partially insecure. Thanks in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
