I have reinstalled the current download of Adware SE 3 times....each time it would fire up and run just fine if I did not download and install the Authentication 2 Beta.

However whenever I have both installed, I am unable to run Adware...I get the splash plate with the measage "initialing..." or something close to this, and at that point Adware freezes and just sits there.

When I check using the Windows Task Manager, I can not see any activity from the adaware application. CPU usage is zero and the whole system is close to completely quiesent. I have plenty of memory and everything else looks normal.

I can duplicate this problem every time. if I reinstall right after a freeze and update the data file. Adaware will run normally including scanning. If I then either (close Adware and instal beta 2l) or (install beta 2 and close Adware), the beta 2 being the authentication advertized on the main page of the web site, I see the freeze during the splash plate display again.

I have even let it sit there for 1/2 hour without any change..the splash screen remains on the screen in this case.

Interesting! Thanks for reporting this, John
