CCC and firewall?

ROBSCIX · Mar 5, 2006, 06:44 PM

Seen this mentioned in another thread but I need info on this...I have to shudown my Firewall if I want to load up CCC..whats up with that? is it because I set the FW to forbid access to the net for the drivers? exactly why would my GFX drivers want access to the net? upgrades and such?

Loopback. Its .NET.

First experience w/ CCC on a client's PC. And the crap doesn't work. Yes, ALL updates including .net 2.0 and it STILL doesn't work. No firewall! *sigh* I said to myself "this is why i never buy ati".

You may need .NET 1.1 as well as 2.0

Is it a software firewall? I have a hardware firewall protecting my network and I have no problems with CCC except for its outrageously long loading times...
Maybe its that particular software? Try a different software firewall (if your firewall is software-based) and see if that alleviates the problem.

Its just the outbound program blocking that's what does it
