[QUOTE="Julian A Smith, post: 797594, member: 77937"] Hello Forum, I am a new member on the forum and I'm posting now because I have encountered a strange problem: VoodooShield will not install itself properly on my computer. I have been using VoodooShield for about three years. First, I started with the free version, and then quickly went with the Pro version. VoodooShield has heretofore worked fine for me. But ever since I tried installing the latest version it [I]will not install. [/I]I have tried uninstalling the program and reinstalling it several times, and each time I get this:[ATTACH=full]208186[/ATTACH] I've tried to thoroughly uninstall every remnant of the program even going into the registry to find and delete any and all registry keys in order to perform as clean a reinstall as possible. Each time I reinstall the program it first takes a 'snapshot' and the tiny shield appears in the taskbar. As soon as I hover my cursor over the shield it promptly disappears so that I cannot right-click on the setting controls. The following are the steps I take in trying to (re)install the program: 1.
