I have been on server since 2012 but my computer with windows 7 professional crashed about 6 months ago, and I can't get back on. I keep getting an error sign that says I can't connect because dil ibcurl is missing that I should reinstall. well I did that 3 times, and last time I deleted everything that was still in my files from Freelancer. I downloaded the mod and the flmm. then I restarted it. I use norton antiviris but when I tried to start game it came up and said something about blocking a Trogen. and would not connect. I got the movies for Underverse to play, but when the global server came up there was no listings. I disabled my norton antivirus temporarly, and still got the error about the dil ibcurl. I would appreciate any advice. you can PM me or post some advice thanks! Dee

Sounds like windows permissions are preventing a complete install, the issue usually being that it won't copy the .dll files because it thinks they are system files that you shouldn't tamper with.

The best solution:

Install freelancer (and all programs) OUTSIDE of the 'Program Files' folder, like to C:/Freelancer
Turn off anti-virus while installing, nothing in the mod has a trojan.
If you still have permission / install problems, run each program (right-click) as Administrator.
On newer systems you may even have to run as an older install, like in Win XP compatibility mode

If you have lost your acct ID, give me a pm once you can get into the server and I will restore your characters.

Thanks for the help. I will try it

also i advise to right click on freelancer, freelancer mod manager, and the freelancer setup as admin, that should help aswell. but dwnudr will also inforce the permissions, as i know from my experience,
with windows 7 and up program files is only writiable by windows only , no user writing, so as dwn said install it in say c:\freelancer. and run it all as admin, that should help.
also make sure you are using the mod manager version we use, as other versions either dont install the mod correctly, or they corrupt the install

hope it helps

I had the same. turned off Norton antivirus as it used sonar to delete a file. reinstalled everything and configured Norton to ignore frelamcer flmm and acc manager. Set up all to launch as administrator. hope this helps.

I had this same problem for two weeks. I found the Ibcurl dill was blocked by my anti virus program. I restored it. and all is fine now :)

I'm still running the game on XP, no issues here. It's an old system too. Really old. Works though.

anyway, that did not work. The problem is with MicroSucks Virus, I can't turn it off. I even have to turn off Microsucks edge with crap cleaner to get my other games to work. the damn thing runs in the background. Big brother is watching you;
