Kim, Well..... install it.... http://www.sevenforums.com/software/11289-daves-quick-search-installed-w7-71 00-64-bit.html Later! From: Kim Gräsman [mailto:kim...@gm...] Sent: Wednesday, June 27, 2012 7:18 AM To: DQSD users mailing list Subject: Re: [DQSD-Users] escape separator in *aliases.txt? As an explanation, if not consolation -- we haven't found a way to build a 64-bit installer using our current installer system, and haven't found any alternative installer systems that make it any easier. However, I just recently got a new 64-bit Windows 7 laptop for work, and I'm starting to miss DQSD, so maybe I'll be more personally motivated to pursue this... - Kim On Wed, Jun 27, 2012 at 9:46 AM, MLL <we...@gm...> wrote: I can confirm that there's no no-brainer installer for Win 7 64 bits.

DQSD 64-bit did not have a simple EXE install kit for any 64-bit MS OS, XP or Vista much less Win 7 for a long time and I dont believe that it does now. Someone on this mailing list might correct me. So the tradition of installing DQSD 64-bit manually has a long history. The instructions I wrote up simply provide the steps specific to Win7 64-bit security and its quirky use of IE 32 bit on 64 bit machine. ( I know WHY MS does it, but DQSD does not know that it does it). I tried an EXE version that was supposed to be compatible a while back but it was not. Dont know how that one was tested.... So to answer your question, 64-bit was never a snap only 32 bit because an installation EXE never existed. To my knowledge it still does not. Nobody ever packaged one that I know of. To answer your previous question I have not personally tested it with Firefox, Chrome... I believe others have and nobody ever said it that it does not work. I know it works with Sea Monkey! 8-) Let me know if you have any specifci questions. Jim |
