| 703017 | 2008-09-07 19:16:00 | What operating system are you using? | Myth (110) | ||
| 703018 | 2008-09-07 19:22:00 | I am using Windows XP | LarsJohann (13010) | ||
| 703019 | 2008-09-07 21:14:00 | Is this a U3 drive? Are you sure that your firewall has 'allowed' the device? | johcar (6283) | ||
| 703020 | 2008-09-07 22:09:00 | Umm it has nothing to do with a firewall. You dont have to add them to a firewall for them to work I've got 2, (ones a U3), and I've never added either to the firewall, so either will run. You just plug it in, and it (should) work |

| 703021 | 2008-09-07 22:32:00 | I will defer to your superior knowledge Speedy, but I also run U3 devices (XP SP3 with Zonealarm Security Suite: a 1GB Kingston, a 2GB Sandisk Cruzer and a 16GB Sandisk Cruzer). Because a U3 creates a virtual CD drive to run, my experience was that I had to 'allow' the program in ZA. That aside, I suspect that the OP's device is just an ordinary USB drive... |
