No doubt.
 
What do you mean by blacklisted?

I did read the earlier comments about the patch...my antivirus program said that the patch has a Trojan virus, so I'm a little concerned...

It appears that the Rosetta Stone patch has recently been targeted by certain anti virus programs. I don't like using patches or cracks either and will only do so if I trust the source (or really want the software). 99% of patches and cracks are deleted by me as I prefer keys and license files. I have Symantec Corporate Edition and it deleted the Rosetta patch as soon as the file was accessed. It only started doing this on recent installs. I know from experience that many cracks/patches/keygens will send a false positive to your security software (AVG will go crazy over files that may be very safe). Thus, I usually research a suspected file before assuming it is harmful.

This patch is supposed to automate the process of renaming the file LicencingDLL.dll to LicencingDLL.dll.BAK (in the Rosetta Stone V3 folder). It then copies a patched version in its place, which now forces Rosetta Stone to accept the following information as valid:

Activation code: XXXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXXX
or
Activation code:AAAAAA-AAAAA-AAAAA-AAAAA-AAAAAA

Registration code: 1111-1111-1111-1111-1111-1111

Some people have found and download the LicencingDLL file and copied it manually rather than run the patch (I used to do this).


Here is what one person said about the patch:

Code:
The patch is definitely clean! If you want serious results whether a file
is infected or not, you should do two things:

1. Upload the suspicious file to http://www.virustotal.com or similar
service and let this service analyze the file.

2. If you receive results that some misc. anti virus scanners judge them
as malware, you should analyze the file with "HijackThis.exe" from Trend
Micro. If are no security expert, but want to know the opinion of an
expert, you can post the logfile of the HijackThis security check in one
of the many HijackThis internet boards.

For "Rosetta Stone 3.3.5 Product Activation Patch - JDS.exe" I received
following results from:

http://www.virustotal.com/analisis/d8c60661240193d6d1c2c29eb16708cc

The analisis shows that 28 out of 39 virus scanners (71.79%) judge the
patch as clean and 11 (28.21%) as malware. It is no suprise that anti
virus scanners like Symantec, Panda, F-Secure or AVG judge the file as
malware while other major anti virus scanners like NOD32, AntiVir,
BitDefender, Panda, Sophos or TrendMicro analyze as clean. It's just
a matter of the software's depth of the heuristic data!
 
Cobra, thanks for all the information. This should help out anyone else who finds this post and is scared to use the patch.
 
I followed the setup process word for word, even the patch worked (so it said), but when I start up R.S, I get this message

" 2122/ Database is out of date"

and the only option it gives me is to "Exit the program".

Any Help?

That is actually a common error (along with a few others). Rather than rewrite a solution, here is one posted on another site:

This is a bug in Rosetta Stone. When you uninstall the product, it will often leave a file behind called "tracking.db3". This hidden file may not show up if you do a search in Windows for it. In XP, you can find the file under "Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Rosetta Stone".

I got rid off the entire directory since I was going to reinstall, but you could just remove the tracking.db3 file to get rid of the error. It is a bug because NO APPLICATION SHOULD EVER LEAVE ANYTHING BEHIND WHEN IT IS UNINSTALLED. Period.

When I called to complain, tech support suggested that if one deactivates the product first, it may not happen, but I did not test this. One might logically conclude that an uninstall would also include deactivation, since what good is activation for a product that has been removed? There is no excuse for this sort of sloppiness.

Also, tech support said you could get such an error if you cancel out of the update process mid-stream. This is another bug. This should not happen under any circumstances (poor programming), and if they are so incompetent as to not prevent this, they should at least warn the user since the update process can take quite some time.

Once deleted, Rosetta Stone should create a new copy of the file when you run it again. I've had to do this procedure on a few installs myself. If the file is hidden and you don't know how to unhide it, go here:

Hope that fixes it.
 
Does anyone have some tagolog. my wife is phillipino and her parents speak tagolog im trying to learn it.

Tag is hard to find for version 3, but I am looking. I posted an older version 2 last year (I think). It had copy protection which required defeating it, but it did work. I am in the process of installing some larger drives on my systems. Thus my software collection is in a bit of disarray right now. I will be on the hunt again in about a week.

Also, props on the Pinay wifey. Treat her right, keep the money asking relatives at bay, and you got a marriage made in heaven:yes: BTW, it's Filipina (Filipno for males), not phillipino (yeah we gots to find that Tag for you bro).
 
Appreciate the drop, but a quick question for the fam. How do you activate the language packs? For instance, I've done Spanish core lessons 1 & 2, but 3 is locked out for me awaiting verification.

Man, good looking out, it worked.

To all who have been able to get it, good. To all still struggling with getting it up and running, don't stop asking questions. I will try to answer them and Black Cobra has been a steady guide in the thread.

I will be adding some new languages soon. They'll probably be broken up from now on because I just don't have the time recently to sit and do big updates like I did earlier.

To Black Cobra: Thanks for being a force in the thread and helping me out so much. You are much appreciated.

My pleasure ThaAnsa3 as you and a few others have been dropping pure fire on this board. Nothing gives me more satisfaction than seeing black people educate themselves for FREE. Learning a new language greatly levels the playing field out there. Whether it's health care, education, the military, or any other social services, there is a huge demand for people who are bi-lingual. It can even mean job security or advancement for some.

Hell, I never even thought about getting Rosetta Stone off the internet until I saw it posted here a few years ago. This stuff is expensive so I hope folks are downloading and sharing it.
 
I know that some will benefit from this thread and some will not. I've heard folks say that they rather take a class. But what happens when the class is over? How much did it cost you? It does take some time to get used to the "total immersion" method of learning. It's like being in another country where you have to simply figure out what people are talking about. It is strongly recommenced that you watch television (especially movies as they are easy to follow) in the language you desire to learn. Go to web sites in that language and try to understand what you read. If you feel more comfortable knowing grammar first, research the web, the info is there. Here are some very good samples.

The BBC site is VERY good

This site contains free to use interactive games for learning languages and links to study resources.

Language courses developed by the Foreign Service Institute. These courses were developed by the United States government and are in the public domain.

How long will it take to learn a new language? Opinions vary as it depends on you, but here are some clues:

Realistically, I've read that the average person should be able to "survive" in another country after about 3 month of steady learning. You should be pretty good in six months and damn near fluent in about a year (your mileage may vary).
 
First off, thank you very much. The Portuguese will help with my trips to Brasil. Second, can you find lesson 3 of the Portuguese(Brazilian)? Again, Thanks!! This is way better than porn ; )
 
Good looking.

This is like the 8th time i've tried to download and install rosetta stone hopefuly it'll work this time.

Thanks.
:yes:
 
this shit is loco aka crazy but it says i need an activation number for all three levels do u no where it is
 
Maybe I missed them when I went through the thread but are there any links for Japanese ?

Not yet. Japanese will be the next language pack I add, so be on the lookout for that.

Came back to say it worked for me and to give another thanks to sir Ansa. :dance:

No problem at all. Keep checking back for language packs that you may want.

You did something wrong. You must make sure that you follow the instructions to the letter to avoid having to activate anything. Chances are, you applied the patch out of the correct order. Make sure that you DO NOT launch the application immediately after the installation is complete. You must apply the patch BEFORE launching the app for the first time. Uninstall it and try the process again. Let me know if it works.

I don't have the language packs that were supposed to be included. I followed the instructions, but must've done something wrong. Any advice would be appreciated.

Give me some more background information. What exactly did you try to do? What error message, if any, are you getting? I need more info so I know what to suggest.

No error msg. It installed fine, I just don't have the language packs. I think I screwed up somewhere with daemon tools and the patch. Should I just un-install and try again?

You have to download and install the language packs separately. They do not come with the application and patch.
