The instructions will work for both stock vanilla CD installations as well as those isntallations downloaded from this or any other site.
This tutorial is written as all persons are computer novices, as such it is lengthy in some places and there may be more then one way to handle what is written. Step 1: Locate your Outpost 2 disk, or Download the version of Outpost 2 you wish to install from this site. Step 2 Begin the installation: See step 2b for CD installations, and 2c for Downloaded installations.
The program should automatically load, just follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation. Once Completed proceed to step 3. Step 2c: Installing from a downloaded version - If you are installing from one of the downloadable files avalible on this or another site you will need to take some special steps.
Extract the file: Dpending on the format you choose to download with, you may need other programs to assist you. However if you downloaded a. Right click the file, and select extract. Depending on the speed of your computer this may take a few minutes. Copy the file to a directory you want it in: I know some right now reading this are thinking you could just extract it to blah,blah directory.
Remember I am assuming your a computer newb so shut up. LOL I personally like to have all my programs where they belong. Once your done, proceed to step 3. Step 3: Data Execution Prevention: DEP is a program with in windows that prevents some programs from using certain memory modules. Outpost 2 is effected by this program, and every with windows XP sp3 to windows 7 may need to disable this program or add Outpost 2 to the expection list.
Open your control panel. Well knowing the last installation was the Outpost 7. Had to go through the win7 repair attempt, unable to repair anything, finally I was able to uninstall and reboot and no problem. I went through the clean install and associated BSOD, win7 repair, safe mode, uninstall hassle twice more with the same result.
Finally I installed it entered the key and didn't bother importing the saved configuration settings from 7. So for whatever reason, 7. I have done a few reboots since and no further BSOD problems, fingers firmly crossed. In all honestly I have found the outpost firewall forum most frustrating on the rare occasions that I resorted to it.
I can only recount my personal experience, from what was a clean install of 7. Now even though I didn't have the web control or anti-spyware modules installed and in the compatibility screen I unchecked the web control and anti-spyware options, they were installed all be it disabled and as I said I didn't want them disabled I didn't want them installed, period.
Why else would I go to that trouble in the expert install only for the update to ride roughshod over my previous decision. So I had to once again uninstall outpost, reboot and do a clean expert install, crazy and bloody frustrating. So you simply aren't getting the full story in the answer you got, I have run in compatibility mode previously and it was only in 7. The scan process is incredibly slow. It's also pretty lousy finding common malware like keyloggers. Many small annoyances makes me wonder if the betatesters submitted any reports at all.
When the integrated anti-virus interfere with the firewall you know something's strange. Anything good? The firewall is top notch and the interface is nice, it's the same as Outpost Pro after all. I don't know who I'd recommend using this since ESET, the makers of the NOD32 anti-virus, has a bundle of their own but without all the problems of this one. Fast, reliable anti-virus and a perfectly working firewall though simpler than Outpost. I will rate this bundle 2 for the excellent firewall and the effort, but they really should've picked a different anti-virus engine.
I thought first it was a very good program. Since it blocks my adsl connection like Panda few years ago under XP i am not agree to use it for a long time! With the service applied directly into the network connection, i can not obtain an automatic ip address. It blocks it! After have get off this service directly from network's properties, all works fine! Tried installing on Vista x64 as that's what it's for but part of the installation failed as the drivers it tried to install weren't signed.
What the hell? Anyway, the installation continued and then I restarted. Now the connection, as expected, is completely hosed. Can't access a single thing on the network or the internet. No problem - I'll just uninstall it, right? Uninstall fails.
