Why does the PeopleSCAN software state, 'This software does not operate on a network'?
The software is provided under a Single Machine License and will only work on a local hard drive, meaning that the software will only work from the computer where it was installed.  You cannot create a short cut to it from another computer system over a network.  The software license is only valid for the machine where the software was installed and cannot be moved to other systems.    This means that the software cannot be shared over a networked system.

Does the PeopleSCAN software work on a Macintosh?

Why do emails I receive appear garbled?
Our Emails are sent in HTML format. You will need to enable this option within your email client

I have installed and unlocked the software, but it fails to function correctly.
This can happen when the software has been installed on a networked or shared computer system running Windows 2000 or XP.   If an administrator or another user account installs the software, the software will not work correctly.  When the software is installed, settings are stored in the registry, under the users account.  This means that another user will not have access to these settings.  The software will need to be un-installed and installed through the users windows account.  We recommend that you do not modify the system registry as a work-around.

Why don' I receive your emails?
If you are not receiving email from us your ISP may be filtering our email.

Many ISP (Internet Service Providers) and mail service providers like Yahoo and Hotmail are starting to use filters to keep out spam.  Unfortunately, this often means they are keeping out our email to you.

Here's how to make sure that you receive our email, you must make sure we are 'white-listed' in your email program, spam filter, and ISP.

1.  Whitelisting us in your email program:

If your mail program uses an approved senders list, or a Whitelisting, put our email addresses on that list: onlinepeoplescan.net.  You should also add us to your address book.  Most e-mail software now has both built-in spam-filtering and Whitelisting features.  You can also create your own special filters to accept and file incoming e-mail, and to trash other ones.

See your software's help menu for information about spam filters, Whitelisting, and creating your own filters, so that you can indicate to your software to accept mail from onlinepeoplescan.net.  Your email program may have its own spam (or 'junk') filter.  Look at your options for settings on your email to find out how to make sure that your email accepts mail from onlinepeoplescan.net.

2.  Whitelisting us in your spam filter software.

If you use a spam filter outside your email server as well (like SpamKiller, SpamKiller, SpamAssassin and McAfee), make sure that you have white-listed email from onlinepeoplescan.net.

3.  Whitelisting us with your ISP (Earthlink, Comcast, etc.) or mail service (Yahoo, Hotmail mail, etc.)

Your ISP may be filtering our email to you without telling you in an attempt to keep spam from overrunning your inbox.  There are different ways to 'Whitelisting' our email, depending on your ISP or mail service, so see which one applies to you:

For more information refer to your ISP's help or contact there support team.
