Installer Problem accessing remote sites
I've just downloaded  the FreeSpace Open Installer v2.1.10 and have tried to run, but keep having a error pop-up. "There was a problem accessing remote sites. Check network connection and try again". I've had a look around to see if anyone else has had this problem or if there are any fixes, but I can't find anything. Anyone else have this problem or a fix?

Do you have a proxy?

If not, is there a proxy set up in Internet Options?  If so and you don't use a proxy, uncheck the proxy box.  If you do use a proxy, be sure it is properly configured in Internet Options.  To get there, run this command:

rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL inetcpl.cpl,,4

Code: [Select]
inetcpl.cpl ,4
This will take you to the Internet Settings / Properties dialog and open you to the Connections tab, where you can click "LAN Settings" to check your proxy configuration.
