So far no-one has responded to any of my postings on this subject so I ask
my self if anyone in the NG is using VOIP Buster. Just to resume the situation: I run Win XP Pro, 2.8 GHz Pentium 4 and 512 MHz RAM I have been using this VOIP Buster for about 18 months and it has been working very well apart from some early difficulties with distortion and one-way communication. With various upgrades, those problems gradually disappeared and, over the last few months, all has been fine and either cheap or free. A couple of weeks ago, the upgrade to version 2.10 Build 336 came along and I immediately had trouble with the program shutting down shortly after connection. Since then, I have not had one successful contact. It is not the PC that is crashing - just the program exits and disconnects the call. Deleting the program, cleaning up the registry, downloading and reinstalling the program has achieved no change. I have left several requests via the 'feedback' link on their website, where they say they endeavour to give answers. No answers have been forthcoming. I have written to their payments e-mail link but got no response. Today, I decided to try giving them another 10 euros but that has also achieved nothing. I have no other problems with my PC and nothing shows up in the event logs of either VOIP Buster or Windows. Can anyone throw any light on this? It really would be appreciated. BrianF BrianF |

I suppose it may suddenly (due to the update) be clashing with something else on my system but I would have expected that to show up in the event logs. BrianF |

At last, I have found the VOIP Buster forum and it seems that there are quite a few problems with this latest build, some are the same as mine but others also. Unfortunately, there seems to be a dearth of solutions. I suspect this version is buggy and throws up different problems dependent on the configuration. BrianF |
