Crash at runtime!

FlashFXP shows me it's "FlashFXP has encountered a problem and needs to close..." as soon as I run it! I just did a fresh install of Dell's Windows XP Home Edition (Dell apparently doesn't load up Windows XP with crap I don't need...yay). Now, I'm not running it on a real PC; I'm running it in Connectix Virtual PC 5 in Mac OS X on my Mac. That shouldn't have any effect, though. There's no special setup for Windows in my emulator...I actually boot the Windows CD in the program. I *highly* doubt it's a problem with the emulator. What else could cause it to do this? The only other software I have installed is WinZip. Unfortunately, FlashFXP is the only program that I can use for my purpose, otherwise I'd just use a Mac application. What's going on here?

what build of flashfxp?
make sure your flashfxp.exe isn't cracked or corrupted. i suggest you redownload it just in case.
if there error.log or debug.log?

It's the file downloaded right from the FlashFXP website. Nope, neither of those files :-/

Both versions do the same thing! Ahhh!

FlashFXP is not compatible with Virtual PC or VMWare.

Why? What does Virtual PC do that stops it from working?

I don't know.

FlashFXP v2.0 Final will be fully compatible with Virtual PC & VMWare.

I was informed by a FlashFXP user that it also works under WINE, a windows emulator for linux.
