gaim is installed as a portable app on my usb stick and has worked well for 8 months. Suddenly it's stopped working however the problem is with my pc not with GAIM.
I can plug my usb stick into other pc's and gaim works.
Have now installed the newer version, pidgin on my pc but same problem. When I try to start it, it tells me it has requested the runtime environment to terminate it in an unusual way. (message box say's microsoft visual C++).
Here is the sequence which led to it's failure:
Re-installed o/s (windows xp) due to virus.
Gaim was working.
Downloaded ie7.
Gaim was working
Found problem with ie7, kept crashing on closure.
gaim was working.
Turned off gaim.
Downloaded windows live one care, ran virus check.
No probs, turned off add ons in ie7. Ie7 now works fine.
Since doing the above gaim has stopped working.
Can anyone give me a direction to look in to find the problem.
It's deffinitely a problem with my pc, not with gaim itself.
