installing Yay

I keep getting this error (could not connect to host 127.0.0.1 port 6000). I am running vesta 32.

I did disable the UAC but still keep getting the same thing. Here is the other error statement I get under the first line I stated: (no connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it) I also turned off my firewall but still the same error. I am almost there.........thanks for your help

You have to declare the port number you want to use....After entering the test word, look in the dos prompt, the script is asking you for a port number.....type 6000 then enter.

Good luck,
Using engines to cheat:
- It is not ethical,
- It is useless, nothing is gained (how can one be proud of a score earn with dishonesty?)
- You will be baned, sooner or later,
- It gives us (the true chess engine players) a bad reputation.

Like the great Andrew Martin used to say: "One is glad to be of service."
