Ok, basically, I installed Vista Inspirat the other day. The install went fine, and I didn't seem to have any major issues. I first found this issue when xfire first started. xfire has a small ad at the top of the window. Instead of the ad displaying as normal, firefox attempted to download the ad. A similar thing happened with windows live messenger, only internet explorer attempted to download it. I cannot access my hotmail e-mails directly from messenger either anymore, because it tries to download the page to my computer, rather than just displaying it. I also had this problem when I attempted to start the game gears of war. When I double clicked the icon, instead of the launcher coming up as normal, it attempted to download the files used to display the launcher.

I haven't tried a reinstall of the pack yet, though I may try it later.

Thanks in advance.

Alright. First of all I need a little more info!! Like like which version of XP you are using along with which service packs are also installed!! Just give me as much system info as you can!!

I'm running Windows XP Professional Edition, with SP2.

Computer specs (in case you need them):
 - Intel Core 2 Q6600 (Quad core, 2.4GHz)
 - 2GB DDR2 800 (2 1GB sticks)
 - Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT 512MB
 - Asus P5K SE (Motherboard)

If I missed anything, let me know.

Hi Orochai!

Usualy something like this should have nothing to do with a Bricopack, for all other members the bricopack works fine with messenger/browser/mail.

Are you sure that your system is not infected (adware/trojan/virus)? Do you use scanner like Spybot Search & Destroy, a firewall or antivirus-software? Install Spybot, update it online, scan your system and "immunize" your system.

If it found nothing, great !

Do you use Internet Explorer 6 or 7? maybe uninstall the browser and install it again, lloks like the registry can`t handle html-files, a install of IE7 should fix the registry.

I'd be wary of SpyBot personally, I had it for a day, but got rid of it becasue the registry monitor drove me mad.

Installed something else, can't remember what because I got rid of that too But the point was it then found a few pieces of malware and a.. damnit what are they... keylogger! That's the one, which SpyBot had missed.

It does drive you mad
Thats why I disabled the TeaTimer (registry monitor) feature.

This doesn't seem to be a problem caused by the Bricopack, but you might want to uninstall and see if the problem persists
