RE: Bug Report

Hi Namenlos,

The minimum requirements aren't hardware requirements, in case that's what
you were thinking. Microsoft state [1] the following minimum software
requirements:

Supported Operating Systems: Windows 2000 Service Pack 4; Windows Server
2003; Windows Server 2008; Windows Vista; Windows XP
Required Software: Windows Installer 3.0 Windows Installer 3.1 or later is
recommended.

You can download Windows Installer 3.1 from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=889482FC-5F56-4A38-
B838-DE776FD4138C

Also, although probably very unlikely, if you have installed previous
pre-release versions of Visual C++ 2008 SP1 such as Beta 1 or Community
Technical Preview (CTP) builds, then you must uninstall these versions via
Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel before installing the final released
version.

Hello, I am emailing you maybe not necessarily a bug, but a problem.I
downloaded the installer and had C++ Redistributable 2008 installed before
that and ran it. I got an error while executing vcredist_x86.exe. The error
message says:
Microsoft C++ Redistributable Package failed to install (C:\Program
Files\Nmap\vcredist_x86.exe). Please ensure your system meets the minimum
system requirements and try again.
My system meets the minimum (most likely, since a friend with a laptop could
run it). I click ok, and it continues and completes. Everything seemed fine
until I ran Nmap and clicked scan. I tried it with intense scan, then all
the other scans, and got this same error: "Zenmap has required an error and
needs to close"
It still remains open, but when I click scan again, I get the same error. I
have no idea why.
