Have followed the sticky, however when I try to save the hosts file I get the following error: Cannot create the c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.file Make sure the path and filename are correct.

I started having problems with this right after I vacuumed.

Completely turn off Windows User Account control and reboot.
Enabling you to make edits to the hosts file.

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

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

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

Also uninstall Spybot Search & Destroy if you have that, since it will completely overtake your hosts file.

How do I turn off Windows user account control?

XP has no user account control so you can skip this.

Please uninstall Comodo and see how it works without it.

Uninstalled Comodo and still nothing. Tried to change the hosts file but still receiving same message.

Took the easy way and downloaded the combo installer. Going to import my hh's from my archives and see how it goes.
