Impulse Advance Build Testers Needed

from Stardock Forums
We would like to test out our new connectivity fixes but with just a few of our customer base. If you would like to get an advanced copy of Impulse AND you are working behind a proxy server please PM me as soon as possible. Only a few will be selected of those that with to participate. If you have had trouble before with proxy servers and have posted here as well please send me a link to the previous posting with your request to partake in the test.

Thanks very much in advance everyone!

I've been getting errors behind my company's proxy like the following:
The impulse error:
Inner Exception: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 38.98.152.152:80

Do I qualify?

Yes thank you. I will be PMing you the link. Be sure to use a fresh install so do a quick uninstall, restart, reinstall.

As a note to both you and anyone else reading this should you have any further network troubles please click on the top right hand "?" help button and use the new tool "Diagnose network connection problems..." Then use the copy function to send back to me anything you get.

Thanks again!

I also have a few slots still left open for the test should anyone behind proxy servers wish to try this out.

At the moment we have identifed one of the problems with the new build and are working on the solution. This build will make very little difference to those with out proxy since it is the only thing we target in this update. You are not missing much in this case. :)

As an update to this I need some testers that are behind the proxy server and actually have access to that information. Please let me know here or through PM if you are available to try this new build out!

Does this new build address issues with proxies which require authentication? Because that's the issue I have (then again, I shouldn't get my hopes up - even Microsoft is too lazy to support proxies with authentication in Silverlight)
