Okay guys Kaspersky antivirus yells like crazy whenever I run impulse. Here is what triggers the AV alert: http://www.viruslist.com/en/search?VN=Password-protected-EXE&referer=kisThanks if you can fix this I would be most happy. It is funny is will report it and as impulse loads up my AV will report a new variant of virus detected does this like 5-6 times!Everyone with Kaspersky is having this issue.

We have a fix for the Kaspersky virus scanner issues. However, the fix will be slowly migrated over the next week. Basically we changed the way our files are packaged and need to repackage the applications to make the compatible with Kaspersky. We are working toward that end, and a version of Impulse has been updated and made available that resolves the issue on the client side once the applications have been repackaged.

I can't get anything to install via Impulse. It'll download the updates just fine, but when it goes to install them, it just hangs. Doesn't give me any kind of progress. I'll wait 5-10 minutes trying to see if it's doing anything, then I give up and try to exit Impulse and it gives me the "installation in progress, would you like to exist anyways?" message so I click yes to quit and exit. It then says "installation encountered an error." I open SDC to update and it works without a hitch. This is fine for the WB update, but there's a newer IP update on Impulse that isn't on SDC, so I guess I'm stuck in between a rock and a hard place.

Bebi Bulma,

How old is your copy of Impulse? If it still the BETA copy please uninstall an reinstall from this locaiton:

If you still have issues please contact support@stardock.com.

Thank you.

Latest update fixes the (404) Not Found that was recorded in the error logs.Nothing else obvious seems to have changed.Something new I just noticed, there is no way to specify the location of the 'archive' directory.

Good point. We will add the target folder to the Preferences folders dialog.

Thanks!
