As Graylox points out; if you miss the giveaway period you will then have to wait till it&#39;s rerun (assuming that it will rerun) or purchase the software. you can always try contacting the developer of software you&#39;d really like to try explaining that you missed the giveaway. Some developers can be quite generous, but don&#39;t assume they are going to give you anything, or even reply to your emails. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1666#post-86255 Wed, 08 Dec 2010 19:03:39 +0000 notblocklox 86255@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>You can defer an installation until it&#39;s rerun by GOTD (Giveaway of the <strong>D</strong>ay).</p> <p>Otherwise <strong>No</strong>:</p> <p>Please read the terms and conditions!</p> <p><a href="http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/faq/">Installation / Re-installation</a></p> <p>Happy vacation!<br /> graylox </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1666#post-86248 Wed, 08 Dec 2010 16:43:59 +0000 mike37 86248@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Hi all,</p> <p>Can we defer the installation of a program offered by Giveaway of the Way ? </p> <p>I&#39;m on vacation this week !</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1666#post-84751 Sun, 31 Oct 2010 20:45:58 +0000 GMMan, A+, Game Modder 84751@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Make sure you run as Admin as well. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1666#post-84750 Sun, 31 Oct 2010 20:44:03 +0000 hotdoge3 84750@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Vista SP2: ShellExecuteEx failed; code 1155<br /> Hi,</p> <p>if I execute a setup as an user without adminrights I get:<br /> ShellExecuteEx failed; code 1155<br /> This happens if the setup extracts some file with name *.tmp and tries to<br /> run them.<br /> <a href="http://www.winvistatips.com/vista-sp2-shellexecuteex-failed-code-1155-a-t420142.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.winvistatips.com/vista-sp2-shellexecuteex-failed-code-1155-a-t420142.html</a></p> <p><a href="http://club.myce.com/f59/vso-installation-error-message-214842/" rel="nofollow">http://club.myce.com/f59/vso-installation-error-message-214842/</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.vistax64.com/vista-security/235820-vista-sp2-shellexecuteex-failed-code-1155-a.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.vistax64.com/vista-security/235820-vista-sp2-shellexecuteex-failed-code-1155-a.html</a></p> <p>now to lifestylesm Try a clean like CCleaner or go to run &#39; %temp% &#39; &amp; Delete may be more time be for runing setup.exe firewall ?

I've rarely had problems downloading from this site (from the mirror link) with this browser.<br /> Hope someone can be more help to you. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1666#post-10444 Fri, 28 Sep 2007 17:01:23 +0000 lifestylesm 10444@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I've closed down all other programs when I clicked on setup. I tried using the task manager and that didn't help. As for Alt-Tab, I haven't tried. I'll have to try when I get home from work. Thanks for replying BuBBy.

The past 2 days I tried to download the programs given and can't get past the setup. I download the the program, I extract all the files, I double click on activate, it confirms that I have activated it and then my IE comes up with GAOTD page comes up and says to sign up for the newsletter. After that I go back and double click on Setup.exe and nothing happens. I right click on the Setup.exe and click run as: and a dialog box comes up and says run with current admin, I click yes and then an error box comes up and says Setup.exe is already running. But I can't get to the installation part of these programs. Please help, am I doing something wrong? Or is there another way I need to be downloading these programs? Or am I destined to miss out on these great and wonderful programs? =(</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Lifestylesm </p>
