I've just installed the p2p software Alliance. Whenever I'm trying to open Alliance a "Java Virtual Machine Launcher" window pops up with this error message: "unable to access jarfile alliance.tmp". What can I do to use Alliance anyway?

Some technical details: I'm talking about Alliance 1.0.6 http://www.alliancep2p.com/index.shtml. I'm using Windows 7 professional.

have you tried reinstalling it with a newly downloaded setupfile? – Diskilla Apr 18 '10 at 16:30

I have WIndows 7 also. Browse to C:\Program Files\Alliance. Right click on Alliance.exe and select 'Run as administrator'. You'll notice that a file alliance.tmp is now created in the C:\Program Files\Alliance directory and the program will actually load and run like the screenshots on their website.
