mark2 Posted November 14, 2004 Report Share Posted November 14, 2004 Been running it since http://www.windowsforum.org/forum/index.ph...=11294&hl=prevxno problems with it, you wouldn't want to leave it on when applying major updates such as SP2 tho, owing to all the warnings it will give you :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted November 14, 2004 Report Share Posted November 14, 2004 Exactly as mark2 - including the comment about leaving it on during major updates or, indeed, large program downloads such as Nero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhat Posted November 14, 2004 Report Share Posted November 14, 2004 I use the new version 2 (doesn't require registration anymore) and am more than happy with it :) As with the others, if you've downloaded something you're 100% sure wont install a nasty, like a service pack from the MS website, then you can safely turn it off for a minute :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-pops- Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Error 1720 - it may be you rather than Prevx that has the problemThere are a lot of Googles on this error number. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Hi,Thanks for your enquiry.We are aware of the installation error code 1720 which results in thefollowing message:“Error 1720.THERE IS PROBLEM WITH THIS WINDOWS INSTALLER PACKAGE; Scriptrequired for this install to complete could not be run. Contact yoursupport personnel or package vendor”This error is associated with .vbs scripts that our installer needs torun. These scripts can be caused to fail.Please try the following solutions:Check that any Anti Virus program you have allows the Prevx .vbs scriptsto run. This could be the most likely cause. Turn off your AV when youare offline and then try the Prevx install again.If possible, check if other .vbs scripts are able to run on yourmachine.Check whether windows scripting host is turned on. You can check this byeither opening Windows Explorer or My Computer. From the Tools menuSelect Folder Options. Select the File Types tabs and in this listcheck if VBS is a registered file type.In the meantime we would recommend you download a fresh copy of PrevxHome v2.0 to make sure the original download wasn’t corrupted in anyway.Please let us know if you continue to experience problems.Thanks for contacting Prevx Home Support.Peter DPrevx Home Supportwww.prevx.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 I had a word with pops first, then installed version 2.0 with no bother at all. It is quite reassuring to see it's message on starting up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
