Title: Alt Binz v0.25.0 Not responding after a few minutes of downloading
Post by: Harmen on August 24, 2011, 10:43:53 am: OS: Win7 64x Ultimate

Dear Alt Binz Support,

I have used your last free version for about a year now and from now i've been very happy with it. Thanks!

Now for the problem: Since i moved to a new city i seem to have some problems that make the software crash after a few minutes.

I just start Alt binz, open a few .nzb's and the downloading starts. I'm on a wireless network by the way (in my old home i had cable ADSL).
Now everything seems fine, so i leave my computer on and when i get back i see this:

Download names are blurred out, and the main tekst is dutch, but it states the well known error: Task is not responding

This all accurs within of 10 minutes of starting Alt Binz. Now sometimes i also get this error after the crash stated above(not always)

I hope to hear from u soon,

Post by: hillmiw on September 03, 2011, 08:26:50 pm: got the same problem with the free version.

downloads for 20 min or so and wham!!! crashes with almost the same error.
clean install of windows 7 x86(updated),altbinz 0.25 and Comodo firewall and antivirus.

Post by: hillmiw on September 04, 2011, 07:08:50 pm: been running smooth for 24hours no crash yet.
so i guess changing the default install dir worked. :)

Post by: Harmen on September 09, 2011, 09:33:29 am: I'm afraid changing the install path, or making a fresh install did not help

Anyone else got an idea? I'm clueless how to fix this

Post by: JACOb on September 09, 2011, 07:17:32 pm: I have seen error like that with my altbinz before (the free one) it usually happens when i download a nzb that is zipped/rarred, then i view the nzb from the archive and double click it to get loaded into altbinz directly without extracting it first, and then i close winrar before its in the cue properly and BAM error... I dont know if this helps just saying, try extract your nzb and then load it.. :)

Close alt.binz, rename "C:\Users\your_user_name_here\AppData\Local\Alt.Binz" into alt.binz.bak, launch alt.binz again, set your server/settings and test
