Hmm, Iv been trying to download some of the awsome programs listed on this site, but none of them work....I did download the Neocodex required program, but I cant seem to find it anywhere....I use Firefox on a Windows Vista and I would greatly appreciate any help. Either PM me or post here, but I also greatly want to be one of those filthy rich Neopian users .

P.S. Dunno if I posted this in the right place, sorry >_<

If you've already downloaded and installed the CodexChecks, you may need some of the VB required files:

http://msdn.microsof...l/html/cpad.asp
http://www.ascentive...ibraryfiles.exe

If that doesn't work try reading this and see if it helps.

If you get any particular error messages, it would help if you posted what they were.

The first link I tried, I downloaded and all, but when I tried to open it it said "The program failed to initialize" Then I had to click ok, and it closed down again.

The second link, I click, and it downloaded fine, I installed it, and it was successful, but Im not sure what it does, lol...

Third, I downloaded the "67k Grabber -Updated Again-" and tried to open it, but I wasnt allowed to. A notice appeared telling me that "Windows cannot find application" So Now Im wondering if Im supposed to open it with something? I only saved it to the disk... and now Im gona go read the third link Laser posted...

Dont we all...are you sure it aint got to do with windows Vista

[Waser Lave]

Oh, if you're using Vista try right-clicking on one of the programs and change the compatibility (or whatever they call it in vista) to windows xp.

[SandStorm]

Oh yeah, that worked...the first link you gave me, I changed it to windows XP, and it now works....now what?

Try that with the neopets programs too. They weren't really made for Vista so chances are they won't work anyway though.
