  • Hmm had the same problem as Exiler. Tried uninstalling AVG, restarting, then re-installing without the linkscanner and updating - CF still seems to work (I can re-join at last! ).


    After trolling through forums, best I can make out is that it has something to do with TDI layer protection in Vista, which apparently has only been implemented in AVG recently.

  • Try the linkscanner thing first... dual-booting is a tad inconvenient at times, and you don't really need Linkscanner unless you're in the habit of clicking on the first thing you see in google :P
    Plus that would require me to locate my XP disc, no mean feat XD

  • I got this problem today too. I eventually got to playt he game after hours of fideling with uninstalling avg, turning win firewall off, hurling my head at the wall, and reisntalling freelancer.


    Finaly I got intot he game and talked to some very nice people before I decided to check out some stations. I noticed all the titles were showing IDS? rather than the item title (which I remember seeing when I tried out single player yesterday. So i decided I needed to remove all mods and start with clean install since all my missing around trying to get it to work.


    Now I am back where I started with error message saying " I have internet issue or server stopped responding but yet the server stays live and updates the players online.


    square one.
