I normally just try to 'continue' through the errors when you get them, some you have to restart ectune, but most don't seem to effect ectune after you click 'continue'.

tried clicking continue and it worked before, but this time it stopped and didn't reconnect anymore. thanks for the tip anyways, tnx

I had a similar issue with ectune on windows xp, Calvin said to uninstall and reinstall, which for me it did the trick, but your case might be different............

i hope it doesn't have to come to that...

It's not that big of a deal. You should have the original ectune file(which should be saved under documents, and you probably had to use winrar archiver). The way I did it is to remove ectune under control panel/add or remove software. After that, I went to my documents, uploaded ectune again, did a web update, and presto!!!!! I'm not sure if you'll have to do that.......
