PestPatrol update problem
Hello,
I have a problem in my home computer with PestPatrol, when I try update the software it does not work, I get the following error message: "Cannot open file versions.txt."
The PestPatrol version is: Standard 4.4.3.24
I noticed that PestPatrol was acquired by CA (computer associates), may be they do not give support for my PestPatrol version and I need upgrade to the lasted version? or is my computer (I'm using Win XP SP2, ZoneAlarm Security Suite 5.5.062)?, I have captured a screen with the error message and posted to the web:

I will appreciate any help, thanks!

lol... no you got me wrong..... i really didn't mean to disable or uninstall the firewall completely and for ever..... i asked to disable or uninstall it just to check if it solves the problem.... once things start working you can easily reinstall\re-enable it back...... as sometime firewall settings get messed up and uninstalling and reinstalling can fix the issue :)

Hi SheharyaarSaahil ;)
Yes sorry, I did not understand...
Today I have installed the PestPatrol in other computer (without firewall) and the same problem when I try run the updater, I noticed that the updater program is trying access to a resource that does not exists: http://Download.PestPatrol.com/downloads/components/versions.inf
Then I have checked the manual updates web page and downloaded the new updater program for PestPatrol 4, installed, downloaded the last updates and now the automatic updates is working :)
Thank you!
Limber.
