Four hours ago I clicked a link

It said there was a LeakBuster update, which I used.

This triggered a cascade of software failures, reinstalls, reunintalls, downloading utility tools from three or four separate websites, blah blah blah.

I got HM to work again, but all my HUD setups are gone.

Is it normal for software vendors to go around ass raping without warning?

Which Operating System, Firewall, and Anti-Virus are you using?

Please update to the latest beta - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmUpdate_1.11.04_Internal.exe

For W7 and Vista you must set \holdem manager\dbcontrolpanel.exe, holdemmanager.exe and hmhud.exe are started as administrator. Run the windows explorer and navigate to your Holdemmanager installation directory. Right click the executables and select properties... then select "Run as admin" from the compatibility tab.

I did get it going again -- I followed your instructions in another thread. Just venting about the surprises, thanks for responding.
