I used to go through the AV shuffle nightmare, now I just use Microsoft Security Essentials (and at work) and I've had no problems what so ever.

Yes, I used AVG for several years and for th last 18+ months have had peace and quiet with Security Essentials. I thought AVG was a vast improvement over Norton, McAfee, etc but MSE is what all the others had the chance to be - and failed.

It would probably be a good idea for the 'Nappers (and any other downloader) to become a little more unique, in terms of the project naming etc etc. I think that could allow firewalls to discriminate better (and troubleshooting might be easier).

It seems Win7 FC uses a single reference name of WindowsApplication1 for these type of programs and since there was already a rule for WindowsApplication1 for SBSN, I guess it just ignored it.

I'm coming from a very easy to use Kerio Personal Firewall 2.1.5 with XP and finding nothing equivalent for Win7. The closest recommended freeware was Win7 FC, but that is proving to be a pain. Anyone have better suggestions?

I just use the WIndows Firewall and Microsoft Security Essential,s these days.

I was going to ask what the show was that caused the unhandled exception in .NET - for the XML file - thinking it was malformed XML file from iView's server. That may still be so? Was there a show that you got to try to download - or did you just get as far as the main index?
But the firewall seems to have been the major impediment.

The firewall was the major impediment as it didn't allow downloading the first XML list.

I'm using Windows Firewall and Microsoft Security Essentials, but it's a different learning curve. The firewall seems to be quite slow in displaying a dialogue to permit/deny access.

Whilst on the subject of firewalls, should one EnableAll or just EnableOutgoing for most programs?

No. It's a GeoIP block. You can only download/view through an Australian proxy server (or similar).

Thanks for the heads-up! Unfortunately it won't fix itself up... I (or someone else) will have to do something about it. This was accounted for in the original instance of when it was "Q & A" (note the spaces), but it appears to be another attempt to thwart the D/l'ers - although it should be OK on mce's IViewNapper or Yansky's iViewFox (yes/no?).

I'm a little scant on time for this stuff ATM, but I might have it fixed in the next day or two (hopefully) ;)

My firefox extension got reject because of some false-positives with antivirus software, so looks like I'll have to just host it on dropbox.

Here's the email I received:

I'm getting three different virus positives for your add-on:

https://www.virustotal.com/file/4594...bc65/analysis/
https://www.virustotal.com/file/b43e...30c5/analysis/

They do seem to be false positives, but it's a lot of noise that we unfortunately can't accept.

Tested on Mac OS X with Firefox

I guess that's fair enough to err on the side of caution.

So which version of RTMPdump is the "virus-total scan" against? I've run the one mce & I use (the one I compiled) and that one doesn't come up with any issues.

Result:
https://www.virustotal.com/file/7854...4648/analysis/

If it's the Mac one, then I don't understand what the issue is :confused: How on earth can you run a Mac executable from within a Windows OS? And the test was using a Windows virus checker :eek:
