This message is displayed using the default browser.</p> <p>If you run the protected exe (The orange icon with a white key) - on the very first screen when it loads - cancel the installation and don't install anything. You will get the same message "Program Activated - What Next?". This webpage isn't the "activation".</p> <p>The "real work" is done before the program/activation code is extracted (while the GOTD dialog is displayed) that checks if the giveaway is current, and tries to connect etc - when <a href="http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/6687/activate.png">this dialog</a> is displayed - This is the moment I am referring to when I say "Activation is occurring" - and it is this connection to GOTD that use Internet Explorer.</p> <p>To illustrate this fact - go into Internet Explorer - in the file menu - select "Work Offline" - and try to run the setup/activation program (orange icon etc). Now despite having Firefox as your default browser - by changing the "Work Offline" option in Internet Explorer - Activation now fails.</p> <p>That is what I mean when I say that Activation relies entirely on Internet Explorer. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4845#post-51768 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 09:29:53 +0000 sukibabe 51768@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>BuBBy</p> <p>How come when mine activates it brings up Firefox?</p> <p>I have IE too, but seldom use it anymore!</p> <p>Suki </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4845#post-51765 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 09:10:54 +0000 BuBBy 51765@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>What firewall, antivirus/antispyware are you using?</p> <p>Also can you connect to the GOTD website using Internet Explorer?

Kept telling me it was a trojan something. Has anyone else had this problem? I would like to have it but, by the time this is answered it will be too late for me. I tried to change the settings in the Firewall and get it to accept it but still would not let me. </p>
