  • Error when trying to install seti

    whenever i try installing the seti@home or folding@home clients i get an error message about msn6.0
    does anyonew know what the problem is as this happened before and after installing msn6

    You may be getting that because of a firewall. You'll have to enable SETI@home as a service with the Firewall for it to work.

      which version of folding did you try to instal?

      have you tried exiting MSN before installing either client?

            I ment graphical, screensaver, or console version...each one has a different installation procedure

            its right at the start of the installation if thats any help
            do you have anything else running? what about an AV?

                  weird

                  well I'm not sure what to tell you...you could try downloading the command line version and see if that gives you any problems...

                          I don't know what to do for you...except i still recommend you try the command line version and see if that will work

                              Glad to see you got Folding to work. Just for kicks, see if you can get SETI to run and, as with Folding, the Command Line version is much more efficient.

                              Has a TT Folding Team been started?
