The problem seems to be with the wrapper (i.e. wrapper-windows-x86-32.exe command in the Freenet\bin installation directory). The wrapper controls the installing, removing and start and stopping the Freenet service. It seems this, on some systems, does not install the service properly. My solution involves running the service as a console application using the -c switch. Method: Open a command box. CD to your Freenet\bin installation directory, and type the following command: wrapper-windows-x86-32.exe -c "..\wrapper.conf" The command box will then show you a whole shed load of info messages as the Freenet service runs (this can actually be quite useful to see what is going on). Note that the tray icon now doesn't do anything as that was controlling a proper service, we're now running it as a console application and the command box remains open while it is running. To stop the service, select the command box and type CTRL-C, this should cleanly shut the service down. I don't know the implications of permissions but this certainly works when logged in with admin privileges. If you want to create a batch file to do this put the following 3 lines in your batch file. You can then either place this batch file in your startup directory or start it manually: REM start freenet service as console application cd "C:\Program Files\Freenet\bin" wrapper-windows-x86-32.exe -c "..\wrapper.conf" Mark. ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe

Please let us know whether it works - if it does work, great, if it doesn't, maybe you can help by testing possible fixes.
