Calibre freezing since 0.4.96
Im running now calibre 0.4.98, but it wont work, calibre is freezing every time at startup, before version 0.4.96 it was working all the time. Now it shows me a second a part of the interface and then turns into a white window. Latest changes in my system are only the security updates from microsoft for xp. In Kaspersky Internet-Security I moved calibre to the secure program-group, even calibre-parallels. Im running it right now for about five minutes, and it doesnt react ... only a white window appears. Any help appreciated, its a great software and Im lost without it, because I do all conversions with it. My library is on harddisk, no other probs with the pc, Im running here also Adobe DE 1.6 for a great pr-505. In advance and Greeting to all Globin |

Short update, after seven minutes It shows the interface .... The last things I did the last days ago, were a lot of conversions from various formats to epub (now standard) ... before i convert to the lrx-format (hope I type it right, I mean the sony-reader-format).

its most probably the antivirus program. Try temporarily disabling it and see if the problem goes away.

I added it Calibre to trusted program zone (in Kaspersky) with all rights and privilages. All white screens are history. Its better than disabling the anti_Vir |

What kind of entries I have to do
To Arek: In my case, to move calibre under kaspersky to the trusted zone wont work, even if i give it all privileges. A white window appears.. I own the german version of kaspersky internet security and I ended up in an entry named program controls (i dont know exactly the entry-name in the english version, its my translation). There I moved calibre.exe from weak-zone to the trusted zone and gave it all privileges like no scanning of files and internettraffic, i ticked all the boxes I saw .. but it wont work with the newest version.

strange, I used to have 2007 Kaspersky AntiVir Home edition now on 2008 version. Had exactly same problem as you did, white screens, program freezing. In the settings panel added to the exclusions/trusted programs -> no more probs. Do you change settings in the internet zone or in the anti-vir part. Kaspersky continuesly scans all Calibre files if not in trusted zone, therefore its impossible to work with Calibre.
