Hi all

I am using BCB6 and Indy9? version.
I am downloading files from HTTP server by TldHTTP control and saving to 
disk, which works fine.
In one of my pc, where the Antivirus Kaspersky is enabled, i can't download 
the files and create to the local disk.
If i disable the antivirus, it works.
Is there any way set my application as trusted program. or something else.

I am sory if this question doesn't belong to the newsgroup.

Thanks
SA

All depends on Kaspersky. You will need to investigate
and create exceptions in the antivirus software itself.

Advice: Do investigate and resolve it (this should not
be a big problem) Then add code to detect Kaspersky and
warn users / administrators that Kaspersky may affect
you problem. In your help, add the steps to then create
the exception. This will reduce your support load.

BCB6 shipped with Indy 8.

You will have to look in Kaspersky's config/documentation for that.  Or 
maybe download to a trusted folder.

I'll look the documentation of the antivirus. I am downloading to All Users 
directory using
SHGetSpecialFolderLocation(), as all programs do.

You are not downloading to the "All Users" folder itself, are you?  You have 
to make your own subfolder underneath it and give it permissions to everyone 
beforehand.

Either the admin can do it manually via the folder properties after creating 
the folders, or your code can do it programmably while creating the folders. 
The CreateDirectory() function has a SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES parameter for you 
to specify security rights with.

This SHGetSpecialFolderLocation()... what exactly does this do?

Gets the path to one of the "standard" folders.
Since the user can move these standard paths around,
and the paths change from one OS version to the next,
it isn't good to use hard-coded paths to MyDocuments.

See for a list of these paths.

What would a sample look like? If I just wanted to show the path of 'My 
Documents' on a simple Edit box?

This question belongs in the nativeapi group.
It has nothing to do with sockets.

See example code about half-way down this thread (link may wrap)
