I have just downloaded foxit PDFEDIT and like the program a lot. Trouble I have is after I open the program, I lose access to my network. The other computers also lose access to my computer. The other computers can see each other, just not me. I have an XP peer to peer network. I do not even have to open a file with the program, just open the program to have this effect. My internet connection stays intact. Any ideas? I have to reboot to get the connections back. This is very annoying! I have tried to go to network connections and repair the connection to the LAN, no help.
Thanks for any help, Chris |

Foxit PDF Editor won't affect the LAN connection except sending a message to our server to verify you are a registered user when Internet connection is possible.
After another thought, I think this problem might be with your Firewall settings. Last edited by arthur; April 19th, 2006 at 07:29 PM. |

Arthur, I have turned off the firewall and still have the problem. The problem is the same on other computers I install the program on. In the other messages, I indicated I needed to reboot. Actually, I just have to wait 30 minutes, and then the other drives are available. The error message I get is : An error occurred while reconnecting P: to \\W\W Cdrive. Microsoft Windows Network: The local device name is already in use. This connection has not been restored.
I know you say your program does not cause the problem, but as soon as I open your program, this problem occurs. It does not happen otherwise. I have turned off the firewall. I really would like a fix. Thanks, Chris |

As FoxPDFEditor starts up, the Norton AV on my other systems sees and blocks a Worm intrusion attempt, and kills network connectivity. Whatever FoxPDFEdit does as it starts up, it looks to Norton like a "Back Orifice 2000 Trojan" and get's blocked.
I also see a post from f00trzak late last year outlining similar symptoms. Can you modify the startup behaviour please? Rgds, Andrew Crompton, Rosestar Printing Ltd Last edited by Andrew Crompton; May 3rd, 2006 at 05:43 AM. |

There's clearly some sort of LAN problem with Fox PDF Editor - please can FoxIT respond to this.

We also have this problem with Norton AV flagging a backorifice worm on computers on the network when ever foxitpdfeditor is opened. I guess this is caused by the program trying to contact yuor servers.
This is the major issue that has stopped me buying this product for the whole office. It makes it look like spyware even if it isn't. I'd recommend you change the communication system so that it doesn't look so much like a virus/trojan. Apart from increasing sales, it might work better for you, since most people would be running firewalls etc that block the current one, because it looks very suspicious. |

I have been using Foxit Reader for almost two years!
I'd never come across this issue! I think this soft is better than Adobe!faster ,more convenient! I'd never update it ,why the new vertion would be with so much problem! Unbelievable! |
