Hi all

I have been using FileHippo.com update checker for quite a while, with no problems until today.
I get a error when i click to check for an update.
I am using the “standalone version” (NOT the installed version)

If anybody else having any problems.

Using Win XP SP3 all updates

Anyone having problems with FileHippo.com update checker and VLC media player? I downloaded and installed VLC media player 0.8.6i but FileHippo still says that I need to update it. ( and shows the same version I have installed)

I’m having trouble with Avast 5.0 and Filehippo 1.036…anyone else?

I would advise you to try SOFTWARE INFORMER

No problem on my systems.

Look at Secunia OSI

The Secunia Online Software Inspector, or short OSI, is a fast way to scan your PC for the most common programs and vulnerabilities, thus checking if your PC has a minimum security baseline against known patched vulnerabilities.

I am not registered at that forum yet so my link is bad but that is the post I was refering to.

I see that you now have more than 20 posts which will permit you to update your profile to include signature information.

Go to PROFILE then Modify Profile then Forum Profile Information then Signature: and put information about your system just like my signature about your system just like my signature so that the helpers can offer pertinent advice.

Oh okay… I’m not registered either. Thanks for the suggestion about putting my system information in my sig. :smiley:
