Guest guest Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 Thankyou, Chris.....I was just about to do it! Tom Warning! Please do NOT download the Diabetes Pilot Desktop program! I just did and it installed iconForge, did not install the desktop, added a Wazam toolbar to my IE Explorer and gave me a virus called something like VBS. I have contacted the website and explained the problem. Hopefully they will check it out and fix it soon. =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 I have gotten two responses back from the company. Which, in itself, is admirable. I'm trying to redownload the software and see what happens. - - - - - Lokrin (TechAss) Technical Assailant http://lokrin.net http://lokrin.net/phpbb - - - - Re: Warning!

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 I received serveral responses also, the last telling me to check my computer for a virus (there is none on my machine) and to also check for ads with ad-ware.... there was nothing there that would cause my problems. I also re-downloaded and tried installing only to have the same thing occur.... it wants to install something for free internet service and never installs the darn program.....

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 I'm working with them right now. I'm uploading the version I have to my website so that they can download it and check it out. They are really good at keeping me informed. They have offered to send me a CD or to email the program directly to me. I'm opting for the email I'll see how that works. I really want this program (the PC version) as the Palm version is excellent. Adaware isn't showing me much, but SpyBot Search & Destroy shows several registry keys and other Mallware. - - - - - Lokrin (TechAss) Technical Assailant http://lokrin.net http://lokrin.net/phpbb - - - - BLOG - From French BLAGUE meaning a " pretentious falsehood " .
