just downloaded and tried to install it. the first error i get is that the SAVCE.exe file is not found for antivirus. the second error i get is that the certificate is expired for firewall.
so i uninstall and reinstall, and now the antivirus won't install because it can't find that SAVCE.exe file. so i uninstalled the whole program.
now, how do i remove the empty Norton Security folder from My Programs on my phone?

Another thread in this forum warns that someone loaded a ROM from Yorch and then discovered a Backdoor.Trojan virus (in the PC or PDA? I'm not sure) so I immediately ran a virus scan on both my PCs.
The desktop came back clean but on the laptop I found Backdoor.Trojan, but the infected file is identified as XDATools.exe.
To my knowlege I got the program from xda-developers and not from Yorch.
Everyone should update their virus defiitions and run a scan.

False alarm... (or so it seems)

Just downloaded the file and scanned the .exe and all files contained within with McAfee Virusscan with the most recent definitions, and everything comes up clean. So if you got it here, it most likely became infected sometime after you downloaded it.
Have you transferred a file from yorch's website using XDATools ? It may have infected the program if you opened an infected rom..
Funny thing - I don't have ActiveSync on the laptop so I moved XDATools over to the desktop and used it there. Norton told me there was a virus on the laptop but McAfee said the desktop was fine. I didn't get very far with using XDATools on the laptop before I realized that it wanted to use the ActveSync connection, so I don't think I moved anything through it on the laptop. The laptop wsa where the virus was found
Should I be trying to scan the PDA? Are there PPC viruses (yet)?
Probably a false positive
Norton must be picking up something on the XDA Tools that is giving a false positive. I am almost certain that is the case because the program continues to work even though the the installation exe is gone.

Hey all,
I'm running Windows 2003 Server on my development system, and would like to connect to my MDA2.
Activesync does say it has connected sucessfully, but never shows the "New partnership" wizard. Any for of syncing or file browsing results in nothing but error messages like "Unable to retrieve device information". I've searched a lot of fora already and tried re-installing outlook, activesync and the driver that came with my mda 2. I also tried disabling my firewall, starting all available serviecs etc. Nothing seems to work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
From other various posts uninstalling and reinstalling ActiveSync seems to be the solution to this problem and this worked for me. Ensure you have the latest version of ActiveSync - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/default.mspx. Delete any current partnerships and then attach your device.
That didn't do the trick Activesync does start up, and a connection can be made, but the whole idea of partnerships seems to be diabled. There is no partnership wizard at startup, and no way to delete or edit the current partnership. I'll tyry again tonight, until then I'll just run all my updates from work

Uninstall, disable driver signing and reinstall.
Failing that, make sure you have all available updates from Windows Update and the latest build version of Activesync. 3.71 build 4034 is what I use. I've used this no problem on W2K3.
Cheerio

The only way I can get it to work is to kill explorer.exe and disable the anti-virus (Symantec corp 9.0), uninstall ASync, reinstall ASync, connect device.
This setup works all the time, but after a reboot I have to start all over. I've tried disabling driver signing, system file protection in any possible combination to no avail, maybe I should just re-install my system (or it may be that I have Visual Studio .Net 2005 installed, but that seems a bit far fetched.
When ever i run the setup file in my O2 atom it tells me "This is not a valid Pocket PC application.
Am I missing something??
Most of the application give me this error.
any suggestion why this is happening

Hi guys, I installed the Windows Live Package from http://www.live-messenger.nl/download/WindowsLive.PPC2005_ARM.CAB. It worked perfect, now i wanted to know how much memory this app costed, so i uninstalled it again. But when i tried to install it again, it failed When i open the cab, it loads approx. 5 seconds in the installer, then the installer says Installation of WindowsLive.PPC2005_ARM.CAB has failed Anybody suggestions how i can get this work??
p.s. Without a hard reset
I have also done the same thing and get the same error. I had to uninstall Windows Live Mobile because I was getting an error everytime I tried to launch Live Messenger. Now I can't re-install it again.
I have 2 main ideas:
1st.: Microsoft is cutting the service from these "un-official" releases of their software, as they are trying now to sell Windows Mobile 6 and Windows Live can't be downloaded or installed let's say "legally".
2nd. (which doesn't affect the first one): Microsoft recognizes the WLM software as not pre-installed or being installed on a Windows Mobile 5 device and tells the client to get "blocked", I mean, it writes some values to the registry and prevents being launched or installed again showing the empty error message I had before unistalling it.
Someone can verify any of my ideas or bring a solution to have WLM working again on our WM5 devices?
Thanks in advance.
Romero i've found the problem! I got my hands on an UNdated UNrestricted version. As you said mic. just cut the WLM off. I do not knowe why but here is the fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36364&d=1175459584

neither of those are correct, the reason is thats its a beta and expired at the beginning of the month. therefore you cant run the program or install it. just get a new beta version by signing up to Microsoft Connect or use the older version thats been extracted from wm6 thats floating around here.
Try it, like the worker:
WindowsLive.PocketPC_50_arm.cab
Thank you very much ASerg!
The version The Dutchman posted was in English, but I find out that the Aserg's file was several kB bigger... That made me think and decided to install this bigger one and finally got Windows Live Mobile working in Spanish, just like before my beta had expired.
So thank you again guys!
I’ve searched, and whilst there are a few thread on similar themes, nothing quite seems to help me with the issue I’ve got.
When I try to open some applications I’ve installed, i get the error message “The file xxx cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file.”
Reinstalling the applications in question does not help.
I've read various threads saying you should change the security settings on your device by using a program on your desktop PC called Security Configuration Manager. That installs and opens fine, but won't connect to my device, which is recognised and connects just fine using Active Sync. i've tried this on two PCs i have, and neither recognises that the device is connected.
Other thread suggest altering certain registry settings. I've tried to do that from my PC using CeRegEditor, but I get the message "Access not allowed" when I try and save the changes i want to make.
Another thread suggests a program to create certificates, but I'm not at all sure about what this means or how to go about it, or even if it's going to solve the problems I'm encountering.
Surely there has to be some way of changing a setting somewhere, so that an application can be used without it having to have a valid/signed security certificate?
Can anyone help me please? Here's hoping...
Sorted...
The issue cleared itself - how strange!
