I've used the free BearFlix for a long time and didn't have problems. Today I downloaded and installed BearFlixPro.

But as soon as I start it and want to fill out my order I get the message:

"bearflix.exe has detected a problem and must shut down"

I already installed it several time. I have cleaned up my registry with TuneUp.

Any other suggestions.

I don't want to completely deinstall bearflix, because I don't want to loose my temporary files and want to continue them.

I have WindowsXP, SP2, Kaspersky Internet Security.

Thank you!

Try the version in this thread: Sticky: BearShare has been sabotaged.
It might still be able to pick up those downloads where the crippled
version left off, assuming the file format hasn't been altered. As an
added benefit, this one is not limited in what types or sizes of files
you can download.

HI Aaron,
thanks that was fast.

Well I also have bearshare , but I choose also bearflix, because I only wanted to download videos and pix. And of all what I read, for that purpose bearflix is better?

I just installed the new BearShare 6.2.0 but it only allows downloads up till 50 MB per file. And it doesn't find as many search results as bearflix.

Greetings from Austria,

You might as well use BearShare because BearFlix is just a weakened
version that offers no enhanced performance. In fact, the beta has
the unique ability to be manually switched to ultrapeer mode, which
will give your searches maximum potential.

Aaron thanks for your help.

Are you talking about the 5.1.0 beta25 version?

Hey Aaron,
it worked. Now I need to transfer my searches manually from before (bearflix) and try them in this beta version.

This is just what I wanted!!! Thanks!

How will I be manually switched to ultrapeer mode now?

It's in Setup/Service. Make sure the fourth status light is green,
which means not firewalled, for best performance.

To get the downloads into it, go to Setup/Downloads and put the old
temp folder in the incomplete downloads spot, then restart it.

Sorry fo taking so much of your time, but I'm not that experienced. And english ist not my mothertongue.

The fourth light is always yellow.

Do you mean to put the old temp folder (bearflix) into the new (beta) temp folder, or just the content of the old?

In Setup/Downloads, put the location of that temp folder in the line
for incomplete downloads. It's best not to move or copy the actual
folder or files anywhere else once the downloads have started. You
are just telling BearShare where they are.

Turning that fourth light green is next. Do you have a firewall program,
or anything to do with security? Describe all of your protection programs
and we can find easy instructions. Find the names and numbers of your
modem or router too because most of them can be controlled from your
web browser too.

Before you wrote that reply I already copied the temp files in the new folder. I did it with one set of files (dat, bak,...) and restarted bearshare to see if it works and it worked and I did it with the rest and it worked too.

Yes, I have Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0.0.124
My Modem is Tilgin AB Vood 452w_A

Do you need any other information?
