QuestionMark Secure

[Kravage]

I'm required to download and install the browser plugin QuestionMark Secure (http://www.questionmark.com/secure/index.aspx). I've tried running the install file as an administrator and changing the compatibility for W98/Vista but I've still been unable to install the plugin. Any advice aside from going back to Vista would be much appreciated.

Please fill out your system specs. Click on the link in my signature.

Are you using the 32 bit or 64 bit version of Windows 7?

I'm currently running a 64-bit OS. Sorry for not updating my system specs. I've done it now.

Have you checked the Questionmark communities section of their website? Perhaps others have had the same problem.

If you can't find a solution for the Windows 7/IE8 issue, you could always use the new Windows 7 Virtual PC - you can download and install Virtual PC, and then download the XP Mode. Then, you fire up VM, select XP, and install the plug-in inside your virtual XP.

what's the error message and have you confirmed it's a windows 7 problem or a firefox problem ?

I highly recommend you contact the software developer. Like I said in my previous post, you should check out the communities at their website.

Yeah, I contacted the developer and they said a W7 plugin was in the works but no ETA could be given. Haven't seen anything on their boards. Thanks for all the help!

Looks like your next step will be to install Virtual PC. It's a lot easier than installing Vista on another partition!

When running the plugin through a Virtual PC, I get the error "cannot be run from within virutal machine." Anything I can do about this?

 

[kegobeer]

Not that I know. You'd have to ask the developers if there is a work around for a VM. If you must have this plugin, it looks like you'll have to dual boot with Vista.
