PBWeb Errors

[CrazyGuy]

I get these errors when running pbweb on a fresh install of et. Its installed on my brothers’ computer at his house. I went to pb support and this what they told me to do.

• Go to http://www.evenbalance.com
• Select the game you are playing
• Go to “Software Updates: Download”
• Download the two CLIENT HTM files for the Operating System you are using and save them into the pbhtm folder.
• Run PBWEB again (PBWEB will check for these HTM files and uses them when necessairy).

I did what they said and still get those errors. I even tried a few times of pbweb and still the same results.

Here are the errors:

It is being blocked by something, better check again.

Anyway why don’t you update PB manually? you can do it yourself within 2min
just follow the instructions on http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=dl-et.php

Yeah… you were right it being blocked by something.
It was Norton that was doing the blocking. Have to disabled it to even play ET.

Norton Blows.
