I sent you a fourth email this morning. Here are some of the things I
would try if I connected to your machine with Netmeeting:
- Click Start, Run, type Regedit, click OK. Press F3, type \conflict
and press Enter. If the search finds any "hits", look to see if the
Zone is mentioned. If so, delete the reference to the \conflict folder
in the right pane. This folder should mention Heartbeat. Press F3 to
continue the search. This removes the reference to the Conflict folder
which was created when a bad download caused a problem.
- Make sure no web accelerators, popup or ad blockers, antivirus or
firewalls are running. All these can be enabled after the Zone is
properly installed again.
- Try the things suggested here:
