With that, there was no way to exit TB! without going into task manager and stopping it. It was just an odd coincidence that the intermittent connection problems I was having corresponded to upgrading to the latest Voyager beta. Once the connection stabilized the hanging wasn't a problem anymore since TB! could complete the connection uninterrupted. So I'm calling it a non-beta issue and just a continuation of the long standing problem of TB! hanging if it runs into some kind of issue while connecting and the user being unable to affect it at that point. -- ò.ó Nick Danger [MUA: TB!

Hello Paul, On Sat, 6 Jan 2007 you wrote in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PVN Have you experienced this with non-gmail accounts? I know your comment was to Nick but I don't have a Gmail account, just my normal Wandoo one here in France, and it was only the first time that I did an F2 on my dad's PC that it occurred. Just as an experiment I removed the setting in his McAfee firewall and I was asked the same question the next time I connected. I'm sure it's a Voyager problem, not external. -- Regards, Richard | The Bat! 3.95.6 with POP3 account AntispamSniper 1.8.0.5 | Windows XP (build 2600) version 5.1 Service Pack 2 | F-Prot AV, Outpost Firewall Pro, Spysweeper, Adaware, SpyBot | CPU: Athlon 1.09 Ghz | RAM: 1024 MB Holiday in France: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/lazyhomes/holiday.html Current beta is 3.95.06 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
Voyager hanging on mail check?
Okay, this is going to be kinda vague and I don't have much in the way of empirical data on this, but this is what's happening to me: I've been using Voyager 3.95.06 and over the last couple of days noticed that TB!began hanging after a few mail checks with messages such as: 01/05/2007, 12:56:45: FETCH - receiving mail messages !01/05/2007, 12:57:14: FETCH - Could not connect to the server 01/05/2007, 13:00:45: FETCH - receiving mail messages 01/05/2007, 13:01:36: FETCH - Couldn't connect to 64.233.185.109 trying subsequent addresses... 01/05/2007, 13:01:46: FETCH - Connecting to 64.233.185.111... !01/05/2007, 13:02:00: FETCH - Could not connect to the server coming up in the log. Checking the Connection Centre would show all my accounts in continual check mode with times listed from the first check fail and counting up. For the heck of it I went back to 3.85.03 and haven't had a hang on check since. For what it's worth, these accounts are all gmail accounts. -- ò.ó Nick Danger [MUA: TB!
