Regarding the Trainer, Mega Health, Unlimited Ammo/Clip, U....

Sorry if this is stupid, but...

I've downloaded the trainer about 6 or 7 different times with different browsers. I've had my AV on sometimes, and sometimes off. It downloads fine, I unzip it, and when I try to start the trainer, I get this message:
"Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."

I've tried unzipping it to different folders, I've tried running it as administrator. Same result. Any ideas?

BTW, I have Vista 64bit on my gaming PC.

This may help Link.
Try ''Method'' 3 first.

Thanks, tried all the methods listed there, but still no dice.

Anybody have any idea what I could do?

Change the permissions in the security tab in the file properties of the trainer. Make sure that the object "Everyone" has full control (this will ensure that every account on your computer will be able to read, write, and execute the trainer).

Did that, too. Still getting the same error.

Next step is restarting your computer. If this doesn't work, something is seriously wrong with your core Windows files that requires a repair installation.

Your AV is blocking it. Uninstall it or disable the Windows Services associated with it.

Thank you! That is exactly what was happening. Even if I turned it off, it still was blocking it. Disable the background scan and it works perfectly. Thanks again!
