Hi Marcin linky OP tried to update the database and got this error: An error occurred in function Load Database. When retrying, the OP reported: I tried again but I got the same result. The program is installed okay, but when I check for updates, it says there is no update available. Then it recommends me to download a new database. So when I download a new database (version 1.36 I think), it downloads up to three hundred something Kb and then gives the error messsage "An error occurred in function Load Database." The program shuts down after this point. If I try to open the program again, it gives the same error and shuts down. I uninstalled and reinstalled the program several times, but I got the same results as well. Any thoughts? Thanks Vino
