Cannot download using Flashget after NIS 2009

Post by blegs38552 »

I just updated my copy of Norton Internet Security to version 16.7.2.11. I am running Windows 7 Rel to Manufacturers and Firefox 3.5.02.

Before the update, I had no problems downloading files using Flashget in Firefox. Now, when I click on download with Flashget selected, nothing happens. When I use Firefox's built in download manager, all is well. When I try to download the same file in I.E. 8.0 using Flashget, the download succeeds. Seems like there may be an incompatibility between Flashgot and Norton?

Maybe.
Is there a list of quarantined files or blocked actions in NIS?
Could you speak with their support guys?

This is a serious issue. Happened to me aswell. Giorgio you need to look into this for windows 7 and Norton otherwise you will have ALOT of ppl not being able to use your awesome program.

Thanks.

Could you try installing FlashGot in a clean profile and check if any warning message is shown by Norton on first run?
