After update, says Software Unregistered.

I have been using my holdem manager for a while, and purchased it about a year ago.. I have had no problems until updating to the newest version today, and now it says Unregistered Software, and when I try to activate online, it gives me the error "cannot connect to remote server"

What should I do to get my holdem manager working again?

This is usually a firewall or windows update issue.

First try to reboot.

If no help, try this:

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Stop Service

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Start Service

If that doesnt help delete the \postgresql\8.x\data\postmaster.pid file, if you see it. And reboot.

Add exceptions to the windows firewall, even if it is off. If you have a 3rd party firewall, do the equivalent

If that doesn't help you will have to reinstall PostgreSQL completely
