Q: Do I need to be connected to the Internet to run FreeFox?

A: YES. In order for FreeFox to connect to the Internet, an internet connection must be present.

Q: I am getting a 'STARTUP ERROR' when I try to start the program. What do I do?

A: This typically is a result of a corrupted download - we would suggest you uninstall the program and download the file again (you can use the directdownload link provided below). If you are using an older version of the program, installing the latest version may resolve the issue.

Download the latest version of FreeFox here. It's also possible your Windows registry could be corrupted, or your system may be infected with a virus. If a reinstall does not work, be sure to run a complete system scan using your Anti-Virus program. Please note that technical support is provided to PRO customers only - for additional support, consider upgrading to FreeFox PRO. In addition to unlimited 7x24 technical support, you will also get faster downloads, enhanced connection speeds, better search results, free software updates and more!

Q: Why does FreeFox not work on my new computer with Windows Vista.

A: FreeFox DOES work with Windows Vista, however there is a conflict with some versions of Java. You will need to fix the version of Java that comes pre-installed with Windows Vista. When you login to the member website, be sure to follow the instructions provided for Windows Vista users - the instructions will walk you through the process of removing the current version of Java you have installed, and then the MP3 Rocket software will automatically install the necessary version.
