The full system is available for new users or existing users wishing to completely refresh everything via the usual download site:-
http://www.freewarefiles.com/HG612-Modem-Stats_program_84567.html
If obtaining the zip file from FreewareFiles.com, click the blue “Download Now” button & choose one of the two “Download Locations for: HG612 Modem Stats 5.0” links
If setting the system up from the downloaded zip file, ensure “Expand folders” (or similar terminology) is enabled & unzip the files to the root folder of Drive C:\ for the various folders and files to be created in their default locations.
These default locations (and various default settings) can be changed by users if desired.
What’s new in Release 5.0 March 2015
=====================================
=========================================================================================
NOTE:-
Version 4.0 was never fully released as only various beta versions
were released for testing purposes
=========================================================================================
* Appears to work O.K. with Windows 10
* Added support for connections where G.INP has been enabled
The programs will operate as per usual until such time G.INP is enabled by BTOPenreach
(on a phased basis starting February 2015)
As soon as G.INP has been enabled, the v 5 programs will detect & store the
new/changed/additional data & generate individual graphs & montages of them accordingly
This has been tested on HG612 modems only at this stage, due to the lack of any data
from Billion and ZyXel modems (& any others that operate in a similar manner)
* Added MydslWebStats web based support
Once registered via the GUI link, users can now view their most important stats online
from anywhere in the world
* Various programming reliability improvements
* Increased event/error data stored in log files (optional)
Storage of this extensive program troubleshooting data is switched ON by default
However, as the log files rapidly become huge,the options to store extensive
error/event data can be switched OFF via the GUI & switched on again if there
is ever a need to debug suspected program errors
* LOS, LOF & LOM data now recorded & plotted in FULL__MONTY & individual ongoing graphs
* Various improvements to the graphing displays, now also showing average error counts
per minute, per hour, per day & total error counts for the graphed period in some of
the graph title bars

Unfortunately, some versions of Avast do appear to get it wrong & falsely report potential virus/malware.
The issue has been reported to them but as yet, they apparently haven't done much about it.
There is a way to instruct Avast to allow/ignore selected programs, but as I use AVG, I'm not sure how to do that in Avast.
If anyone has concerns, the various programs can be submitted for checking to online virus checking sites such as virustotal.com:-

Our programs actually do very little to the system, nothing is installed to the registry, if you're running XP then JT.exe is copied to a folder in programs files, this allows the GUI to create and alter scheduled tasks. The only other thing it does is to create a scheduled task.
So I really can't see why it would have caused what happened.

Even after restoring the file & disabling McAfee I still get an error about some files missing, as a result it won't let me update it in help & about although it says updates are available.

Quote from: buseng12 I've just downloaded this, but after unzipping it & trying to run it McAfee quarantines one of the files as a trojan.
Which file is McAfee saying is the Trojan?
Quote Even after restoring the file & disabling McAfee I still get an error about some files missing, as a result it won't let me update it in help & about although it says updates are available.
A decent anti-virus program should have an option to either ignore or always allow specific files/programs.
I wrote the code for most of the programs & Ronski wrote the code for the others (GUI related).
I can assure you & also on Ronski's behalf assure you that none of our programs are trojans & if downloaded via the links in the official FreewareFiles.com site, do not contain any viruses.
It may be the case that you would also have to allow any updated programs in McAfee.
I use AVG Free 2015 which has no issues with the programs.
Does McAfee have an option to report programs as 'safe'?
If so, & if you can get past McAfee's false-positive detection, you could perhaps inform them that our programs are indeed safe.
If you are still uncertain, you could submit the individual programs for checking here:-
https://www.virustotal.com/uk/
The majority of AV programs are fine, but a few do wrongly consider HG612_Run.exe to have suspicious behaviour.
All that program does is to run the main data harvesting program (HG612_stats.exe) in the background each minute as per the Scheduled Task that is created when setting up the programs.
Nothing is installed in the Windows registry or anywhere else & the programs do not run as Windows 'services'.

HG612_Run.exe
Classed as Artemis 017EB74E99BA
I have now managed to exclude it in McAfee, however I an still getting these remarks when I try to open & use the programme.

If any of them are highlighted in yellow, it would suggest they have been extracted to non-default locations.
If that's the case, you have 2 options:-
1) Move the folders & their subfolders to the default locations or
2) Specify where they are now by using the Browse... button.
