ANY help appreciated. I would like to use what I bought.

I'm on Windows 7. When I click to download a filter it opens filter forge and window pop up says it is connecting to server and hangs or completely shuts down.

I tried setting options to using built in library, won't connect to Internet, even when I am connected.

Any help greatly appreciated. I turned off all security. I don't know what else to try.

Is there a way to download the filters as images so I at least use in Photoshop?

THANK YOU so much!

This is what I followed that worked:

Reconfigure Filter Forge Options.
Found here: Tools > Options > Online tab.

Then try one of the following:

1. If you use a proxy server to connect to the Internet, choose the "Use proxy" option in the "Connection settings" area.
2. If you don't use proxy, choose "Direct connection" in the above settings.

Glad you could fix it

Yes, when new you need to configure some of the options inside FF so it works right.
