Previous versions available If necessary choose a .zip version & it will be easier to install! Just unzip & use!!!

ok.. now i'm really confused. the previous version worked perfectly fine at all times for me and it won't open now either. i never had a problem with it opening cuz of my anti-virus or spysweeper b4 but would that have anything to do with it now?

I'm having the same problem. I've tried launching from all places and it still wont open. It all started when I ran no adware I believe it deleted some of the necessary software to run the program. How do I get it back?

There's ONLY 2 spy/Adwares that can be truly trusted. The reason is that some don't get updated often or are just poorly designed & see p2p apps (particularly the magnets) as being spyware so it will eradicate it. lol (Actually I thought Spysweeper was ok but.)

Here's the recommended list:

ad-ware http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ (FREE)

Spybot - Search & Destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html (FREE)

Peerguardian: http://peerguardian.methlabs.org/pg2.html (FREE)

well we figured out the problem with my computer being that i was just running out of date java so check the java version you have..other people have been saying that with the updated versions of their ATI video cards it hasn't been working.. look around the forums (i can't post links right now no time)
