1) Clear your web cache, and download the beta update again, with another browser if possible.
2) Right-Click > Save Link As to save it to a different folder.
3) Reboot, and run the installer first thing.
4) Make sure the update is installing to the proper \holdem manager folder

*If you have any problems with either of the above, please email your details to sales@holdemmanager.net.

Fixed. Problem was an adblocking proxy I had installed today. I installed google chrome for the first time and had to use something called Privoxy to block the ad's from websites. Apparently HM doesnt like this somehow, even though nothing else has been affected (games, poker, chat, limewire, p2p etc). Regardless shutting it down allowed me to activate HM.
