Hello ladies and gentleman of games. I know this isn't a "help the tards" forum but Ive been having a problem trying to install a Second life viewer on my computer. Google, LindinLab site support, and all other forums have failed me thus far. so out of frustration i thought I'd consult the experts.
-Im trying to install "SLviewer2"
it loads and i get an error message that says "MEDIA_PLUGIN_WEBKIT has failed" i tried some older viewers and non LindinLabs viewers as well but since they used the same codes i either get the same error or my computer freezes completely.
-im running windows XP on a dell dimension 8200
I tried...
-updating Quicktime,Adobe flash,directX9,java.
-updating my video card driver
-turning off my firewall,spybot search and destroy,and avast antivirus
-changing my internet security preferences
adding an exception for all things secondlife in my firewall.
From the information i gathered i know its a common problem and has something to do with the way the viewer communicates with the site. Personally Ive never played the game but i'm decent with photoshop and im an insomniac so i thought id have a crack at selling cloths or something of the sort.This has been a thorn in my ass for a week now, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Reinstall OS, use official viewer, get new computer.

i found the answer for anyone who is searching and happens across this here it is --->> Just go in your Second Life folder program, search for the SLPLUGIN.EXE then right click on it .... go to the PROPERTIES, then go to the COMPATIBILITY tag ... there choose "Run this program in compatibility mode ... WIN 95". i have windows xp home and it worked.. go figure it would be somthing that dumb and easy
