ATTN: Norton Internet Security users

**ClickHere2Surf.com** · October 12th, 2004, 05:29 PM

I have just released version 4.0 of my ebay auction sniper and 1-2 users have reported that the program froze when attempting to place a bid.

I suspect Norton Internet Security (most of you know it's loaded with bugs, Norton Internet Security, that is) or other firewalls. Norton has caused problems with my software in the past, I tell the users to get the free and more reliable and bug free Zone Alarm which always solves the problem.

I cannot replicate the problem on my PC, I am trying to get as much info as I can from the users who are having a problem. One mentioned "Sygate firewall" (which I installed and rendered my PC un-bootable) but he said even without it the program was failing.

So, if anyone here uses ebay please let me know, I will give you a free copy of the software if you are able to replicated the problem and at least help me solve the issue so you'd be able to use it as well (if I can find the cause of the problem).

I know some of you will remember my Hard Drive Cleaner that crashed Win 98/Me due to the crappy microsoft installer. Just to re-assure you, I've gotten rid of that MS system crasher and now use a real 3rd party installer, to re-assure you even more I sold nearly 1000 copies of this software and not a single one crashed a system.

So if anyone is interested please let me know and I will PM you the download link and send you a free registration code. I will only accept a few testers, first come first served.

Note: This is not a beta version, it is a full version, the problem I beleive is in firewalls and that's the point of this test, I want to find the source of this problem.

Thanks

UPDATE: It might be Norton 2003 causing the problems, seems like 2004 users don't have any problems but it would be good if someone could confirm this.

Updated: Other firewalls or unknown causes could be the source of this problem, for most users it's working fine, for some, parts of the program can connect to the internet and other parts can't.

So tell us about this program you wrote, and are selling almost 1000 copies of.
How much do you sell it for? What exactly does it do? Why should I buy it? How are you advertising it?? Other than Windrivers??
