ESET ESS - ApexDC V1.2 stable incompatibility

[patch1 0]

Since upgrading to ApexDC 1.2 I can no longer connect to any hubs.

Works fine if I downgrade to 1.2 beta

Works if I disable the firewall.

Anyone found a way of making them work together?

BTW I'm running XP professional

ESET ESS V4, Firewall in interactive mode.

Firewall log occasionally showing "No application listening on the port" Source 0.0.0.0:68 Target 255.255.255.255:67 Protocol UDP

Could be because you forgot to allow the application again when exe changed (since ESS should ask you again when application modification has been detected). I use ApexDC++ 1.2 with ESET ESS perfectly fine without any issues.

Thanks Crise

It was several things

I run ApexDC as a normal user (no admin privilages)

While running my usual instance of ApexDC I choose it update at the start up prompt

ESS detected the application modification, I clicked allow (as normal user)

Above appeared to cause 2 problems

Wrong read write privileges for new ApexDC files (fixed by resetting inherit read/write/ modify privileges to all files in ApexDC directory)

ESET not remembering application change allowance (fixed by restarting computer, login as administrator, run new ApexDC, approve application modification).

Glad you sorted it. :)
