Squawk Box issues

I'm having trouble with Squawk Box.

Using 56K dial up.

Turned off XP Pro firewall.

 

I Start SBRelay -> OK .

Start FS2004, Multiplayer session to SB Realay -> OK.

In FS2004 Modules/HostSB/Run ->OK.

Start Squawk Box, click start to see list of games, leave IP address blank ->OK get "Looking for games..." nothing happens.

After a few minutes I hit cancel

 

Then I get "squawkbox.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience"

OR

If I don't wait minutes and hit cancel I then get a requester "... programs are not accreddited for access to an unregistered copy of FSUIPC. See log for details"

 

In the log file " 887578 Illegal read attempt: offset 0354, size 2

887578 ... Program or module not accredited for use with this unregistered FSUIPC"

 

Any ideas gratefully accepted.

Don't use HostSB. Use the SBhost that comes with Squawkbox.

See following subjects (or maybe all subjects).

 

3. Empty IP-address.

4. Squawkbox "SB Host.exe". (As Bryan Wollenberg say)

9. Faulty position at Vatsim (register FSUIPC)

 

Link to subjects Troubleshooting at http://forums.vatsim.net/viewtopic.php?p=2262#2262

 

p.s. Make sure you add some firewall, subject 6. Firewall and router.
