Description:

Solixa Worms is a brand new snooper with separate buddy list window and tabbed private message window. Tons of features to make your worm life easier. I am still beta testing and adding new features but once everything is finished it will be one hell of a snooper!

Troubleshooting

  • If you receive a "Run-time error '339'. Component '?????.OCX' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid." when attempting to start Solixa worms its probably because you are missing some .ocx files.. you can download vbruntime files from Microsoft using the links below.

Visual Basic 6.0 Run-time Files: [1]

Run-Time Redistribution Pack: [2]

If you still have problems, please try restarting as this seems to help after installing additional controls.

  • I have found thousand of bugs (28 November, 2008), where could i troubleshoot them?
