Password Manager Crashing IE8 in Vista.

On certain sites, I noticed that IE8 on vista would crash with a Data execution Protection Error message. After digging through all of my addons, I narrowed it down to the "iepasswordmanagerhelper Class" and the "Lenovo Password Manager" extensions.
Although most sites work, some sites will constantly crash the browser. lenovo.com has just recently started to crash it. pcworld.com's news and review articles seem to always take it down as well. I've also disabled memory protection in IE8's advanced settings with the same results on or off. only disabling the addons in IE8 seems to fix the problem, but since I like the feature (especially with the fingerprint reader) I would rather have a fix than a workaround.
Password Manager version is 3.00.0205.00 and Client Security Solution version is 8.21.0006.00. Thinkvantage system update is not showing any updates to thiese versions, and all TVSU updates have been applied. Laptop is a Lenovo R61 7733 system running the Lenovo image of Windows Vista Ultimate. It has the built in Fingerprint reader as well.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

is your PWM up to date , IE 8 & 9 64 bit works on mine
edit: here is a beta version of PWM it works fine also http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkVantage-Technologies/Announcing-Password-Manager-4-beta-testing-pro...

Password Manager and IE8 fails with CNN website

Whenever I go to www.cnn.com, Internet Explorer 8's browser consistently crashes. After looking into the problem, I discovered that Lenovo's Password Manager is causing the crashes. I have duplicated this issue on at least 10 Lenovo laptops. Everytime I exit from Lenovo's Password Manager, the issue resolves with IE8 and www.cnn.com.
The latest patch for Lenovo's Password Manager does not resolve this issue. Since IE8 is my preferred browser and www.cnn.com is one of the sites I use the most, I sure wish someone at Lenovo would address and fix this issue.
Mr. Clooney

Well, i have made some investigation, this Password Manager has add-on DLL's for IE 32bit and it has same 64bit DLL's on my disk aswell. But problrem is, these add-ons are registered only in 32bit IE, not in 64bit IE. I can see it in list of Add-ons, i have included attachment from IE32bit, there are 2 Lenovo add-ons. If i open same in IE64bit, its missing there. But i have no idea, how to register these add-ons manually, because these DLL's are on my disc in both versions (32 and 64 bit aswell), only registration in IE is missing.

Bug in Password Manager, when fingerprint not available. Please investigate

I've got all my password manager entries set to NOT ask for a windows password if fingerprint reader is not available or not working.
So if i go to gmail, and the fingerprint window comes up, and i check the box fingerprint reader isn't available, and click ok. nothing should happened, which is what happens normally.
However, I've noticed a bug a couple of times, which allows you to enter a windows password for entries that it shouldn't.
Just happened now, after a fresh restart of my computer, after everything loads up + 30 minutes, including password manager icon in task bar. I opened IE8, got to facebook, clicked on fingerprint reader unavailable, it asked me for my windows password and logged me in.
Then I double clicked the password manager icon in taskbar, opened my facebook entry, and checked the fingerprint unavailable box, and nothing happened. Like it should. I closed password manager, closed IE8.
Restarted IE8, went to facebook, and tried it again, but this time it worked like it should.
For some reason, I was allowed to access my password manager entries through my windows password, when that option was disabled. This is terrible, as people in my household know my windows password, but they shouldn't be allowed to enter my private password manager entries.
Could you please investigate the bug/cause in this, and fix or advise me on how to prevent it from happening.
Either that, or Password manager doesn't work as designed, and therefore isn't secure.

Restore Password Manager .pwd File from Backup Image after HDD crash

Hi
After a HDD crash i try to recover my Password Manager pwd File from a Backup Image. In the Image the file is located in "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\XXX\Anwendungsdaten\Lenovo\Client Security Solution"
But if i try to import it the PW-Manager asks for a Password. But no PW works. Not the Windows PW (same as before) or not the Sec-Chip PW works. I tryed to copy the pwd File into the same folder but it´s not recordniced from the PW Manager.
Can somebody help me please to get my Passwords back?
thanks

Hi,
that saved passwords were stored also in TPM chip, so if Password maanger can not find them there , what is obvious, then I dont think, that this will work.
However it would be a test to install CSS withtou TPM recognision. Uninstall CSS and install CSS with EMULATIONMODE =1, this will install CSS in software emulation mode and do not need to contact with hardware TPM.
To be honest I never tried this scenario, but in if I would be in your situation, then I would test it just to see.
However I don't give it a big chance, that this will work.
Sorry for bad news

Firefox crashed recently, and when i reopened it my norton password manager was gone (the toolbar is still there though). What do i do???

My computer had not been working very well, and firefox was being a pain and crashed. When i finally got it to open again, my password manager was gone. I still have the norton toolbar with search and the safe site thing. Please help!!! I need my passwords!

I Tried That. I Did That For A Minute & Nothing. Its Still The Same.

Should I take It To An Apple Store?

After updating to Firefox 7.0.1 , Kaspersky password Manager v5 crashed firefox?!

After updating to Firefox 7.0.1 , Kaspersky password Manager v5 becomes incompatible with Firefox 7.01 ,I've tried to force add-on to work by installing the Add-on Compatibility Reporter , it said this add-on no longer works , any site I open it with kaspersky Password Manager firefox would crash , I wish I could rollback the updates and back to version 6 , also Kapersky virtual keyboard ,URL advisor . antibanner for KIS 2012 stopped working any solution , please?!

@repected sir.
we paid kaspersky pure alot of money....and a major portion was because it has inbuilt password manager.....
if we get the password manager v5..we still have to pay for it which is unacceptible.
firefox has ruined password manager.
i recommend people to switch over to chrome(the new version has password manager support) for the time being till firefox gets us a stable version one which has support for kaspersky password manager.

Desktop Manager crashes on Vista

I have a client running Desktop Manager 4.7 on Vista Home Premium, synchronizing Outlook 2007 with his Curve. The sync. process consistently fails on the Calendar step, after it has gone through all the entries.
I found this thread:
http://forums.pinstack.com/showthread.php?t=65191
Following the instructions in the second post re. running scanpst.exe then reinstalling the Desktop Manager had some success. The scan found a number of errors which it repaired; I then uninstalled the DM and reinstalled it as administrator and ran the sync. step. The first time I ran it, it worked; however, trying it for a second time threw up the same uninformative error (the application has a problem and is now closing).
From what I can see, many users seem to be having this problem, with varying degrees of success resolving it. The client has had the device for 6 months or so, and it worked OK until last week. Ant idea/suggestions would be appreciated.

W7 64 BIT Password Manager not working

Using CSS 8.3. Can use fingerprint to log into W7. But the Password Manager feature will no longer work.
Known issue?
I'm also dual booting with Vista 32 bit. In Vista it works fine. Could the problem be one BIOS chip since its hardware connected (I think) but 2 OS'?

Same problem here. I just recieved mine (Win 7 pro 64 bit, X201 Multitouch) last week and password manager not working at all in ANY web browser. It recorded my .net password just fine, but i can't get it to work in IE8. Who pays this kind of money for something that doesnt work?

Fingerprint Reader access to KeePass (from a Thinkpad with Password Manager)

The goal: secure, convenient, automated login to password-protected sites
KeyPass is a great open-source program for secure creation, storage and use of login passwords and other information. With a plugin called KeeForm, it allows very convenient automatic login to password-protected sites by clicking on a KeePass entry. To preclude unintended access to all of your secure information, it is wise to close Keepass after each use, or set Keepass to lock when minimized. But this is less convenient, because a long secure master password then has to be entered before each use of Keepass.
Using a fingerprint reader to enter Keepass can be a big time saver while retaining security. Capacitive swipe fingerprint readers can be very secure, provided they operate through equally secure software. They are available as USB units, or integrated into some keyboards and notebook computers, for example some Lenovo ThinkPads.
Unfortunately, set-up can be a challenge and there may be disadvantages even after the best workable interface between KeePass and a particular biometric system. This example uses the integrated fingerprint reader and software on a Lenovo ThinkPad X61.
The problem: getting secure fingerprint software to use KeePass
ThinkPads can use Lenovo fingerprint software alone for start-up into Windows, but they need additional layers of software (Client Security Solution - CSS, and Password Manager - PM) to work with other programs including KeePass. PM uses CSS security functions.
Cautions about Lenovo CSS:
1. Some organisations advise against CSS because of problems including clashes with antivirus programs. See http://www.ncsu.edu/antivirus/lenovo/ and
http://prowiki.isc.upenn.edu/wiki/ThinkVantage_Software_Under_Windows_Vista
These bugs may have been fixed over time - but install at your own risk!
2. CSS and PM introduce their own system overheads which may slow some operations.
3. Once tried, CSS may not simply be inactivated while restoring basic fingerprint start-up into Windows. The X61 at least insists that CSS be reactivated for any fingerprint function. If you try a Windows system restore to a time before CSS was first activated, you may experience the ‘blue screen of death'. The security chip evidently regards your desire for a past configuration as a security breach. With luck you may ‘live again' if you can log into Windows in Safe Mode to undo the attempted system restore. After that, I reactivated CSS. I was not game to try uninstall after inactivation of CSS - but see the ncsu link above.
Having decided to accept the ‘risks' of activating CSS and PM, you may want to try PM for all password management. For me it would not recognise some internet logins, could not complete auto-submission in others, and did not allow the manual adjustments that make KeePass so versatile. Unfortunately PM help is very limited. There is no current user manual (old manuals up to v1.4 available on the web do not match the properties of the current v3 of the software). KeePass (or the KeeForm plugin) also struggles with some sites, but it works much better overall. Help on KeeForm plugin syntax is limited, but otherwise KeePass help is great.
So we really want the fingerprint reader (via PM) to work for KeePass master password entry.
This is not so simple for five interacting reasons:
(i) It is tricky to register KeePass in PM;
(ii) PM then gets confused by ‘hidden' entry of a master password during fingerprint login to KeePass, and repeatedly tries to save ****** as a changed master password;
(iii) PM also tries to automatically register each entry opened for editing within KeePass;
(iv) PM tries to automatically register other logins even if they are managed through KeePass.
(v) Your KeePass records are now only as secure as your PM login (which is likely to be your Windows login).
The solutions: or workarounds at least
The best workarounds I could develop for these five issues were:
(i) To register KeePass in PM, first ensure that PM is running (icon in the system tray). Then launch KeePass, click the login window box for unobscured password display (three blue dots turn black), enter the master password and click OK to start KeePass as usual.
If PM does not offer to save an entry for KeePass by this stage, try ‘plan B'. Open a window to edit an entry in KeePass, then click Cancel. PM seems to recognise this more readily as a login window and may offer to create an entry. Accept the offer, and name the entry KeePass. Then open PM to edit the saved entry. You will have to edit several fields to achieve an effective PM entry for KeePass:
The title field must be "Open database - database.kdb", to match the title of the KeePass login window.
The file name field should show the full path to KeePass.exe (something like C:\Program Files\KeePass\PeePass.exe depending on your installation).
The login and password data field is accessed by double clicking the entry. It will need to show only your KeePass master password (in the unobscured text view). In login and password data, delete each line of unwanted text until you get to the final password line (shown as *****), and edit this line to provide your master password.
In the Advanced tab, select auto-fill and auto-submit and the desired security level [see (v) below]. Then select OK to get to the PM front window, and File - Save Changes, then Exit.
Now when you close and re-launch KeePass, PM should automatically intervene (requesting a fingerprint to complete the KeePass login if you selected that security level. Select ‘No' when PM asks to change the password [see (ii) below].
If you had no luck, try ‘plan C'. Close KeePass completely, then launch it again to open the login window. Then right-click the PM icon in the system tray, open the ‘Type and Transfer Tool', click the box for unobscured password display, type in the KeePass master password, drag the cross-hairs to the password field in the waiting KeePass login window, and release the password there. Click OK to start KeePass as usual, then click OK to close the PM transfer window. If there is still no KeePass entry in PM, check that KeePass has not been included in the PM excluded programs list. If this sequence does not work, reboot and check again. Failing all else, any entry that PM succeeds in making from any login page can be edited to an effective KeePass entry by editing fields as described above for ‘plan B'.
PM (v3.00) can be coy to associate initially, but it will accept KeePass (v1.14) as a password-managed program, and thereafter it reliably succeeds to auto-submit the KeePass login after some help described in (ii) below.
(ii) Having sent the correct master password to the KeePass login window, PM becomes confused by the ‘hidden' text now in the password field, and offers to change its record of your KeyPass master password to ******. You can manually select ‘No' in the PM changed-password dialogue box that appears every time you use PM / fingerprint for KeePass login. But Beware: if you ever accidentally select ‘Yes' (the default) your KeePass master password record in PM will be changed to ******. This can be edited to provide the correct password again, but it is more than a minor pain in the AR5E. Unless you know (or have a backup of) your KeePass master password you just lost access to your KeePass database!
To avoid this big nuisance and risk, you can set up to restart KeePass for each use from a desktop shortcut (instead of minimising it to the system tray) and have the shortcut run a batch file with vbs scripts that send the ‘No' message to PM automatically.
Here is an example batch file, with corresponding vbs scripts. You can make all these files using Notepad and save the files with the names indicated, into the KeePass program directory (C:\Program Files\KeePass in this example).
KeePass.bat (This launches KeePass and tells PM v3 not to change the password. Caution: If Lenovo changed PM program design in future, the effect could change; the batch file might send {TAB}{ENTER} keystrokes to another open window on your computer):
C:
cd\
cd "C:\Program Files\KeePass"
start " " "C:\Program Files\KeePass\KeePass.exe" "C:\Program Files\KeePass\Database.kdb"
start /w Sleep.vbs 1
start /w AppActivate.vbs
start /w SendKeys.vbs
Sleep.vbs (provides a short delay to open the ThinkVantage dialogue window, otherwise the following scripts fail because they are sent too soon):
Wscript.Sleep Wscript.Arguments(0) * 1000
AppActivate.vbs (puts focus on the ThinkVantage Password change dialogue window so that Tab and Enter commands are not sent elsewhere with undesired effects):
CreateObject("WScript.Shell").AppActivate "ThinkVantage Password Manager"
SendKeys.vbs (sends a ‘No' response to the PM request to change its KeePass entry):
CreateObject("WScript.Shell").SendKeys "{TAB}{ENTER}"
Please substitute ) where you see smileywink: in the vbs scripts above - I can't get this forum window to stop automatically translating the " ) sequence of text (without a space) as an emoticon.
This batch file approach should work with additional startup switches for KeePass, for example the /backup.path: switch used by ‘another backup' plugin (or you can use the db_backup plugin that works from the KeePass.ini file). Quotes are needed around any entry with spaces. But some things that ‘should work' such as just writing "KeePass.exe" instead of the full path in line 4 of the batch file do not give the same outcome for me. This may be an effect on timing of the switch of focus between windows - so if you strike a problem it may be worth experimenting with the delay time set through the sleep script.
If you set KeePass to lock when minimised, you will have to deal manually with the PM changed-password dialogue every time you re-access KeePass. So it is simpler to close rather than minimise KeePass after each use and restart it when needed, via the batch file.
(iii) You have to tell PM ‘No' whenever it offers to save an entry that is edited in KeePass. This is less of a nuisance, because entries rarely need to be edited once set up in Keepass. There is no way to turn off this requirement. If you select ‘Never' it will prevent use of PM and therefore fingerprint entry to start KeePass (not just the edit window).
(iv) Turn off internet login within PM. This will leave all internet logins to KeePass. Unfortunately you can not set PM to only allow a single program login (KeePass), but you can set it to exclude specific programs, so do that for other programs that you access via KeePass.
(v) Finally, set PM security within CSS so that a fingerprint (or a password if the fingerprint reader fails) is needed every time PM is launched (not just once per boot). Similarly, set KeePass security this way within PM. Otherwise (if you set the requirement to once per boot) your passwords are open to inspection while you are away from your booted computer.
Caution: How secure is your Windows login password? Most likely this is also your PM login password, so it now allows access to your KeePass database! Make sure that it is a unique, secure and preferably memorable password.
How close are we now to the desired combination of security and convenience?
Click on the KeePass shortcut to the batch file given above, swipe the fingerprint, wait while CSS works, then click on the relevant Keepass entry to access any password-protected site or application in your Keypass list - great convenience.
Security is very strong - both KeePass and PM are extremely secure unless you use a weak or insecure master password or select less secure settings.
Starting (or opening a locked instance of) KeePass without the batch file given above requires a couple of extra carefully-placed clicks in the process to tell PM not to mess up its entry for KeePass, then to complete KeePass startup. This is less convenient, and a mistake could prevent future database access - so the batch file method is recommended.
A final caution (while enjoying secure & convenient logins):
Beware - fingerprint access is so convenient that you may forget your master passwords! Eventually they will be needed! You may click the wrong button in PM, suffer a faulty fingerprint reader or change computers! Then you must recall your master passwords before you can access your password file (and possibly your computer). This could be devastating: loss of all secure password information in KeePass and PM (and possibly loss of all information on a protected computer drive, not to mention need to pay for a computer motherboard and HDD replacement). So:
1. Choose very secure but ‘unforgettable' master passwords for KeePass and computer (PM) access.
2. Always set up a secure master password as an alternative to biometric authentication (in case of a faulty fingerprint reader).
3. Keep your password database backups, and your separate master password backups, in another secure (preferably encrypted) but accessible location!
Program versions tested:
KeePass v1.14 (v2 betas not tested) with KeeForm v2 and DB_Backup v1.14
Lenovo CSS v8.20 with PM v3.00
The solutions were tested in November 2008 on a Thinkpad X61 running Windows Vista Business. The tricks to interface with KeePass can vary between fingerprint programs (search the KeePass forum).

I'm reviving quite an old topic here, but I have been unable to find any other good information on this. I currently use the latest version of Keepass v2.23 and have Lenovo Passoword Manager v4.3 installed on my new W530 laptop. I can't get PM to recognize any passowords at all, in web browsers or in windows application.
In PM the only thing I can do is create folders and secure notes. My fingerprint software works great for automated logins to windows. Does anyone have any experience with using the fingerprint reader with a windows application like Keepass?
How can I get the Password manager to do ... anything? Recognize a password in windows or a web browser?
I'm open to any other software to be used or I can write scripts if necessary to accomplish this. It doesn't seem like this should be so difficult, but from what I've learned about Lenovo so far, is that nothing is easy. After trying to get battery charge thresholds working proplery in Windows 8, I've already lost faith in a company that I thought had a great reputation.

Creation of Users causes Password Service Crash

Hi All,
I somehow managed to post this in the wrong forum in PHDs - sorry about that, so am re-posting here in something more appropriate:
I have 3 Intel XServes and 2 Mac Pros on different sites which all have the same issue. When I create a user in Workgroup Manager, the following error occurs and the Password Service crashes:
"Got unexpected error
Error of type Not a known DirStatus (-1) on line 1922
of /SourceCache/ServerManagerUserGeneral/
ServerManagerUserGeneral-193.4.1/
UserAdvancedPluginView.mm"
As well as the password service crashing, it causes all other users to stop authenticating until the server is rebooted.
If I create a user with the default shortname (i.e. untitled_1) then the service does not crash. I have reinstalled the OS, replicated my build on a PPC machine with no issues but continue to have this error on the Intel machines. I have even tried installing the server OS onto an Intel iMac just to test and it does the same thing, including OSX Server 10.4.7 and 10.4.8
Has anyone else come across this or have any suggestions on what may have caused it?
Cheers,
PJR

Have just realised why my XServe does not have the "MacOSXServerUpd10.4.8Univ.pkg" sitting in the receipts folder.... the server shipped with a 10.4.8 disc so that is the 'base OS' for it.
Have just checked another server running 10.4.8 on a Mac Pro and that does have the file as originally (because it doesn't ship with the Server OS) came with a 10.4.7 Server install disc.
I have upgraded the XServe to 10.4.9 using the combo update and initial testing seems to show that it is all working properly, however this server is in an integrated environment and not authenticating users usually.
I will have to backup another server running full OD services and try an upgrade (or reinstall the pkg) on this.
Many thanks!!

Needed to reset IE8 to default. That stopped Client Security Password web aspect.
Uninstalled then re-installed & setup Enhanced Client Security. Had backed up / reinput password list.
*** Web aspect of capturing / prompting userids and passwords is not working ***
Not being prompted to save a userid / password
A known userid / password is not being entered into what should be a known site.
Doesn't even seem as if enhanced client security is running - no icon in system tray. Yet Client Security Solution shows it enabled.
What / How do I get enhanced client security to again start, prompt to save userid/password and to reinput for a known site?
Obviously not keen to wipe machine and start again...
Am also really hissed that I cannot ring Lenovo Support and actually talk to someone about this!
Thanks for any meaningful suggestions and assistance.

Password Manager not working with any internet browsers

I have Thinkvantage password manager installed (v. 3.20.0311.00) on my Thinkpad X201. I am running Windows 7 professional, 64 bit. Password Manager works for all programs except IE8 or Mozilla Firefox (eg. works for Outlook, works for iTunes, etc.). When browsing, the program simply never pops up. It worked previously, and I still have many saved website login details, but it never logs in for me any more and new sites do not activate the program.
I have made sure that the add-on is enabled and I have checked the box next to "enable 3rd party browser extensions" in the advanced tab of internet options. I have also tried resetting internet explorer settings. As mentioned above, this in not only a problem with IE8; it also occurs with Firefox.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

A password manager for Midori

Hello to everyone,
being a would-be Midori user that lacks a password manager, some time ago I made a script that worked as a password manager. Now I've made a Midori extension for this task and made it available on AUR http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=49314. From the README file in the package:
The password manager extension for Midori is based on formhistory.c and on my
userscript for password management (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/62098).
It works by reading the network passwords with domain "midori" from the login
keyring and storing them in a GHashTable. Whenever your browser loads a page
with a corresponding address in the GHashTable, a script that inserts user
and password is built and executed on that page. Whenever you submit a login
form, a similar script is built and executed, and returns the new data, which
is stored in the GHashTable and in the login keyring.
When you choose to never store a password for a site, the extension will store
a user/password pair equal to __never_store_here__/whatever. The user part of
the pair (i.e. __never_store_here__) is used to remember that passwords must
not be stored.
Sometimes the extension fails to detect that a form has been submitted, so it
won't store your user/password pair. In such cases use the lpins utility to
manually insert the pair into the login keyring, like this
$ lpins http://www.averystrangelogin.com user password
Note that the pair is inserted in the login keyring, not in the GHashTable, so
you need to deactivate/reactivate the extension so it'll read the new pair.
Missing features:
* I don't know how to check when the login is successful, so wrong user-
password pairs will be stored.
* There isn't a utility for listing/deleting/modifying passwords, use seahorse
for these tasks (Midori passwords have domain "midori").
* I don't know how to deal with password forms that uses md5hash for basic
protection (like ubuntu forums), so the extension won't work for these sites.
Please note that I'm not an expert in internet security, crypting algorithms,
javascript programming or webkit programming, so use this extension at your
own risk.
I sent this extension upstream, but the author, Christian Dywan, would like to have it merged with form history. Which is beyond the limited time I can spend on these activities.
Please send bug reports and comments in the AUR comments area of the package.

You should really consider calling support and having them clarify their licensing agreements for you, because you are grossly incorrect about almost everything you've said.
RoboForm Everywhere and only RoboForm Everywhere is an annual subscription (allowing you to use any RoboForm product on all of your devices for one annual fee).
the RoboForm Desktop and RoboForm2Go products are still a one time charge for the life of the version and do not have to be renewed annually at all. They do not expire.
Also, what older mac version are you hoping to revert back to? RoboForm for mac was just released as a full version (not a beta) within the past few months. Mac users cannot revert back to an older version of the Mac software because there is no older version. If you purchased a license of your mac, the current version is still included with the license you already own. There is no previous version.
Although the .rfp filetype is used only by RoboForm and not compatible with other password managers, you can still export the data to create a backup. You can also created a printed list of your data if needed.
You are not entitled to Windows 7 for free just because you bought Windows Vista and RoboForm (as well as most software) is no different. I understand why you may be unhappy about the upgrade but you should research more.
Also, LastPass has had multiple security breaches in the past year, RoboForm has had none in the history of the company, just something to think about.

T61p Client Security Solutions + Password Manager + Two Operating Systems

Greetings.
I am running both XP and VISTA on my T61p. I use the client security solutions password manager feature for websites and network shares. Since my model has the biometric scanner instead of entering the user ID and password I just swipe my finger. The issue is that when I first setup client security solutions it creates some system key that I assume is tied to the security chip hardware. Once I have it setup and working under one operating system it fails to authenticate me under the other operating system. It brings up a windows that says, "Verify Identity" / "reason for authentication: system key recovery" Why am I not able to use this feature under both operating systems?
Thanks for your time.

I was using an older version of RnR, however, after the attempt to re-install, I upgraded to the latest version. It still errors out.
As to your second guess, I was hopefull this was the fix, I had forgotten to go through the registry. I deleted an empty CSS folder in the Common Files folder. And found several registry entries which have now been deleted. I don't believe I missed any. But unfortunately no luck. I cleared the chip again as well.
If it adds any clues, the system update was not working either. But the language fix posted on the forums resolved it. If I remember correctly the first time I tried to reinstall CSS it did ask a question/comment about language not matching. I could be wrong, however, there have been alot of attempts.
I spoke with tech support on the phone with the only suggestion being a clean restore of the laptop which I would like to avoid.
Thanks again.

Client Security - Password Manager reinstalling

Hello all,
       For an unknown reason, I have been experiencing this problem over and over. Whenever I restart my computer and open a new explorer window, windows installer pops up with CSS trying to install the password manager. No matter how many times i let it install, it occurs every time. In addition, I keep receiving the 3 Chrome Registration Failed messages when starting firefox because the program continues to try and install the Think Vantage password manager, even when I try to cancle it. Appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Geoff

I experienced the same issue with IE 7 on Vista Ultimate SP1 after installing the packages referred to in Microsoft KB950124 and KB950125.
The following procedure worked for me:
1.       Run IE7 as Administrator.
2.       After completion of the CSS-Password Manager installation, restart the PC.
Hope this will help.
Giovanni
