[Bug] Installer (and Shareaza?) freezes

[roestvrijstaal]

Hello everyone,

I try to install Shareaza 2.5.3.0 on my Windows 7 machine, the installer detected that Shareaza 2.5.2.0 is still running (and indeed it does) and ask to close the application. I confirmed and the installer tries to close Shareaza.
But, it results into a hang of the installer and Shareaza. Shareaza showed it's "Turn off" screen and the "loading bar" stays at "Closing Server Process".
When i opened ProcessExplorer, Shareaza stays at a CPU usage of 40~50% with a working memory set of 30.028 kB.

When i run the installer as Administrator i don't even see the "Turn off" screen of Shareaza and the tray icon of Shareaza dissappear, but the process is still going on.

OS: Windows 7 Professional 32-bits
Shareaza version: 2.5.2.0
Shareaza-installer version: 2.5.3.0

The same thing can also happen if you close Shareaza normally (via context menu or on shut down) - which means, actually, this freeze is supposed to have been fixed a long time ago...

Nope, it was supposed to have been fixed before the release of v2.5.2.0, so you shouldn't even have encountered it. But as you have, there may be still a rare type of that specific freeze around that hasn't yet been found and fixed...
