Socket Error Delta Force Pinger 6.0
When running *Delta Force Pinger 6.0*, I am unable to update the game lobby ip's. Each time I try the update button I get "*socket error= 11004*". I *cannot update the main server list* because of the socket error. I have included Pinger as an exception for my fire wall. I run pinger with admin permissions. It connects to the idividual game servers just fine which leaves me stumped. I am running a dual processor ASUS Mobo, 4gig RAM, Vista 64 Thank You, l3ushwacker -- l3ushwacker

Socket Error Delta Force Pinger 6.0
Greasyjim, Thank you for the work around. I will give it a shot.  I tried the suggestion of logging in to Novaworld 2 just prior to running Pinger. This actually worked, so I am guessing Pinger needs a cookie set on the system somewhere to work, strange huh? I believe your solution probably does the same thing but eliminates the need to log into Novaworld 2 using a browser before hand. Thanks a bunch and may God bless, l3ushwacker -- l3ushwacker
