When I open Holdem Manager I get the message that it cannot connect to the database, which I've been using for months now? All of a sudden?

I then get the Database Control Panel and whe I try connecting it says...

Connection error: Cannot read data, external host has closed connection

System.IO.IOException

Please help?

A Windows Update, or update to your virusscanner could have caused that.

Please update to the latest beta - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmBetaUpdate.exe

Under Vista and Windows 7 make sure UAC is disabled http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmmain.aspx?faqid=73 or holdemmanager.exe, hmhud.exe, and dbcontrolpanel.exe are started as administrator.

Add exceptions to the windows firewall, even if it is off. If you have a 3rd party firewall, do the equivalent or uninstall it temporarily - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=171

Make sure you have Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (or later for w7) installed.
