Category: Installation Group: None Status: Open Resolution: Remind >Priority: 9 Submitted By: Brian Phelps (btphelps) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Explorer freezes with DQSD Initial Comment: I am having serious problems with the latest version of DQSD. XP Pro will not complete booting. When I uninstall DQSD (in Safe Mode, no less), upon rebooting the system still attempts to load DQSD. I get a blank document in the taskbar that says "server not found." I received one suggestion to put a command in preferences.js to keep DQSD from checking sourceforge upon starting. This has not helped. What's wierd is that even if I uninstall DQSD, the system still tries to load it. I've completely deleted all the files, I've cleaned up the Registry, I've checked all the Startup locations, and I cannot find whatever it is that is trying to start DQSD. Yesterday, the system worked fine after I did right clicked on the Taskbar to disable the (non-working) DQSD Toolbar. Yesterday, after getting rid of the "Server not found" error, right clicking again did not offer me the option to activate DQSD (i.e, the menu option was not available). When I rebooted a few minutes ago, the Taskbar froze on me. I used Windows Task Mgr to kill Explorer and restart it. I was then able to right click on the Taskbar and deslect the DQSD Toolbar. But the taskbar/Start Menu is currently frozen and unavailable to me. So there are two problems: 1. DQSD keeps getting loaded even after it's uninstalled. 2. DQSD is freezing my Taskbar upon restarting Explorer. I'd like to get DQSD working, but short of that, at least be able to run my system without it. Any debug options I can run to provide a system trace for DQSD? Please advise. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brian Phelps (btphelps) Date: 2004-02-13 08:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=920889 This problem continues to plauge my machine, and me. On occasion DQSD will load and run correctly, but more often than not it does not. Even though I went into safe mode to do the uninstall, I have the same problem. What's worse, the entire task bar is disabled. I cannot seem to DQSD's hooks out of my system. I ran a startup check and looked for browser helper objects, and cannot find anything related to DQSD. There is something low level going on early in the UI initialization that is not getting removed. This is a HUGE problem for me. Can someone please look into this? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brian Phelps (btphelps) Date: 2003-12-19 12:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=920889 Well, I spoke too soon. Upon rebooting again DQSD is till hanging. Same symptoms as before. And I still can't uninstall the thing successfully. Any clues anyone!?! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brian Phelps (btphelps) Date: 2003-12-14 22:43 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=920889 The latest BETA release appears to fix these problems. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=432066&aid=859666&group_id=42081 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
