Started having problems with my FGII. Uninstalled everything, even did a register delete of all Fantasy Grounds items. Then when I tried re-installing, this is what I'd get -

Fantasy Grounds II Setup: Local installation complete.
<check mark> Run FG after update.
<clicked> continue button.

Here's where my problem starts.

Fanstasy Grounds II Updater (window)

in the message box it'll read -

"Getting package listing"

After a couple of seconds, under the "Getting package listing" get a "Error!" Looks like this -

Getting package listing
Error!

Bar at bottom stays empty and the button goes from Cancel (before ERROR!) to Done (After ERROR). Then when I click the Done button, FGII closes up.


more info -
System: WinXP Pro

Here's what I did when I first had problems.
Ran the Uninstall program
Ran the /regedit deleted all items I could find with Fantasy Grounds.
Did a PC search for all Fantasy Grounds files and folders. Deleted.

Rebooted and did a search and delete again.

Then tried re-installing.

Found my problem.

After 8ish, off & on un-installing and installing. Tracked my problem down and fixed it.

Somewhere in my anti-virus program, it decided last night that it needed to block FGII as it might be a virus. Without telling me or giving me any induction it was doing so.

So after completely un-installing FGII and my anti-virus software, then re-installing both. Everthing now works smoothly.

I hate it when it does that.
