It should look something like this: Copyright (c) 1993-2006 Microsoft Corp. The error 1117 is USUALLY caused by your firewall, you need to block Rosetta Stone from the 'calling home' Here's how: Go to: C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc There you will find a file named 'Hosts' (not Hosts.ini, or Hosts.txt, or anything else, just Hosts) Open it with notepad. Now that TPB is back up, I plan to UL the language packs later today. ALL of the files have been scanned with Vipre 2012, and are clean.

Run the 'RosettaSoneVersion3' file Click 'Never register' At the activation screen, click 'Continue' (you can scroll through the list of languages that are activated if you wish) Create User DONE! NOTE: I have tested this on 3 machines, 2 Vista's, and 1 Win7. (assuming you have that much free space on your drive) Extract them, they will copy all of the files needed for that particular language to: C:/Program Files (x86)/Rosetta Stone/content Go to the C:/Program Files (x86)/Rosetta Stone/Rosetta Stone v3 folder. DL whichever language pack(s) you want, as many as you want.
