Hi

 

i am running XP Home SP3. i recently updated F-Secure internet security to 2013. up to this, i was running Chrome with no problem. now, it won't run so have uninstalled and reinstalled - it seems to install OK but when i run setup i get a blank tab with

 

chrome://signin/?source=0&next_page=chrome%3A%2F%2Fnewtab%2F

 

in the address bar and nothing happens.

 

i have installed and uninstalled Firefox but no difference. i have installed and uninstalled F-Secure with no difference. i have added chrome.exe to the firewall exceptions.

 

to complicate it a bit more, the other PC running on my network is running chrome with no problems despite having update F-Secure on it.

 

any ideas what i am doing wrong?

    Hi Jagadesan

     

    opened the support ticket and was advised to turn F-Secure off then rerun Chrome - did this with no difference (as had done before) so not an F-Secure problem although the coincidence of it happening when i updated  F-Secure is striking. have tried the Google forum with  no replies yet so back to the drawing board

     

    cheers

    With regards to your problem, kindly try the workaround stated below so that we can identify whether F-Secure component is causing the issue.

     

     

    1. Open start button and click on Run.
    2. Type services.msc on the input box and press enter.
    3. Search for all services related to F-Secure such as FSMA, FSGKHS, ORSP Client and stop it.
    4. Try to reproduce the issue. If the issue have been resolved, then the problem might be caused by F-Secure.
    5. If issue still persist, please turn on all the services related to F-Secure and contact Google as this steps is to ensure whether F-Secure is causing the issue in more detailed manner.

    Hi Jagadesan

     

    that worked - Google runs fine with the services stopped - turned them back on and it stopped again

    i had a banking protection software installed called Rapport Truisteer - this was conflicting with the banking protection on F-Secure - remove the Rapport program and hey presto no more problems but would not have found that without F-Secure techs remotely accessing my computer as i had no idea that the newer version of FS had banking protection included.

    Uninstalling Trusteer Rapport solved my problem, so it looks like there is a clash - maybe you'll have to instruct Win XP users to deactivate it if they want to use Chrome.

     

    thanks, Alex
