Watchers

A week ago, DAZ rolled out their website changes with new e-commerce engine.  Now, I've been as faithful a customer for them as anyone else, but I'm having a serious concern about this rollout.

Problems with navigating the site and sale prices not showing an expiration date aside, what REALLY bugs me is that after downloading a couple of items that I bought last night they would NOT install.

I double-clicked the .exe's as usual, but they did  NOTHING.  I tried redownloading them, scanning them for viruses/malware, and even rebooting my computer.  Nothning worked.  For a while I was thinking that somehow I got some really bad malware that Norton or Malwarebytes couldn't handle.  Anyway, after going through the forums this morning I found that at least one other person had the same problem.  

Last night I sent an email to customer service, since their support ticket system was still not up.  If I don't hear from them by tomorrow, I'm going to call them.

On a related note: has anyone heard about Universal Extractor?  Someone on the DAZ forums suggested trying this to extract the files from the .exes.

When you really think about it, the only difference between magic and miracles is whether or not the Church approves of it.
