    Hector,

    It has been too long since I had any real dealings with the WCnav
    (other than to use it) I am not able to put the new upgrade in. I
    allow it to download and close the connection manager and it still wants
    to download it.. I have even shut down the computer and it still will
    not accept the upgrade.. I am sure it is something simple but I am
    brain dead.. Any idea?

    Thanks a lot
    Sharon

    I don't know but maybe it has to the with Windows Explorer under
    Windows 2000/NT.

    Close all applications, including any DOS windows. Make sure
    nothing is running.

    Pop up your Task Manager and see if you see a NTVMD.EXE, kill
    this. Or reboot the machine to clear them. Sometimes these
    NTVDM.EXE cache the memory and show wierd things.

    Make sure you have dunzip in your system dir. I don't remember the details
    but I remember something about a version conflict of dunzip that cause wcnav
    to download over and over again. Perhaps someone else remembers more.

    Hector,

    I don't run 2000/NT on this computer..This is not the WINS computer but
    the one I use to call the WINS boards with using the WCnav. It runs
    under ME. I have re booted several times and don't find NTVDM.exe
    running. I am still using IE5.5 but I do have Windows Explorer blocked
    from using the internet.. would that have any bearing on this?

    Thanks
    Sharon




    I don't know but maybe it has to the with Windows Explorer under
    Windows 2000/NT.

    Jack,

    Sorry.. I have refused to move up the OS chain any more with Microsoft
    so have no knowledge of 2000 or XP.. I run ME on my personal computers.
    I do have the board running on NT but have no plans on upgrading the OS there..

    Sorry I could be of no help..

    Good luck
    Sharon

    Brian,

    I have 4 copies of dunzip.dll on the computer.

    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM
    C:\Program Files\Imagine It!
    C:\Program Files\GetRight
    C:\wcnav

    Maybe someone will know if they should all be there or not.

    Thanks for the information.

    Later Sharon

    Realistically the system dir is your path so that should be the only one needed.
