What's wrong? I could access the database in firefox ok (though one time it came up with some error, retrying it a few minutes later fixed it)
With iViewRipper, could it be that you haven't installed Microsoft's .NET Framework v4.51? It is a requirement (prerequisite).
- though I would have thought just running the .EXE w/o .NET 4.51 would give an error, and quit.

M3M1E would be able to advise us. Perhaps with the new version of 'Ripper, which installs under Windows (rather than just copy/unpack), a check for the .NET Framework would be helpful to some new users?

Incidentally, I would highly recommend the free, small utility from ASoft, that allows you to determine what Microosft .NET versions are installed on your Windows computer.

Since .NET is as ubiquitous as Java, it is useful to know that information.

Note that I am using the 64-bit version, so I'm not really testing in the environment you're using.
