If all you have is the regular windows firewall, this works for me on Windows 7 64-bit.
This includes the New IP address range: 169.55.0.224/30

It's easy to modify for other programs. :rolleyes:

If I add all the IPs in Host as follws :

127.0.0.1 184.173.149.184
127.0.0.1 184.173.149.185

127.0.0.1 50.97.41.102
127.0.0.1 50.97.41.103

Will it work?

Is there any syntax to add IP range in Host File ?

What is the mean of this :

and updates from IDM servers.

I can't connect it to IDM server bro.

Means you can download update files from IDM servers. :unsure: [not from the IDM built-in update feature]

sorry confused. what exactly is this idmupdt.exe ? but if can update, what about the idms that are patched by changing the original idm.exe ?

so won't that invalidate the update :o ?

idmupdt.exe is an offline-update-file for IDM. B)

But If you update a patched idm-exe by using idmupdt.exe, idm-exe will be replaced with new-updated-unpatched-idm-exe

and in order to get it work you have to [re]patch the new-updated-unpatched-idm-exe. :doctor:

This method mentioned in post #1 will work for any updated (new) version without worries. :)

But as for the patched-exe they may or may not work with old medicines.

PS: IMO use CIDR IP Block Method. B)

[Cereberus]

oo so the #1st method can i use a serial generated by keygen but with firewall blocked to work ?

[ashish1989]

is there any soft to disable idm to check for updates

[kantry123]

is there any soft to disable idm to check for updates

A simple REG TWEAK SHOULD BE FINE

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\DownloadManager]

"LstCheck"="12/31/99"

regards

[ashish1989]

bro any registry file to do this

can u provide

[NOP-X4]

Sorry for the late reply.

YES you can use any keygen-generated-serial. :)

[NOP-X4]

bro any registry file to do this

can u provide

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\DownloadManager]"LstCheck"="12/31/99" 

Copy and Paste it in Notepad and save it as my-ex-girlfriend.reg B)

and double click on it to merge the registry values. :)

Here's one of my share for FWBlock for IDM:

IDM IPS BLOCK:

CIDR IP Range

50.22.64.0/18 or 50.22.54.0-50.22.127.255

69.41.160.0/19 or 69.41.160.0 - 69.41.191.255

169.55.0.0/18 or 169.55.0.0 - 169.55.63.255

184.172.0.0/15 or 184.172.0.0 - 184.173.255.255

207.204.21.0/24 or 207.204.21.0 - 207.204.21.255

207.218.192.0/18 or 207.218.192.0 - 207.218.255.255

Tested and working for me until the latest build IDM 6.25 build 3.

what exactly do you put between IP ranges when adding them to that field?

is this form correct:   184.173.149.184/30, 184.173.188.104/30, 50.22.78.28/30, 169.55.0.224/30, 169.55.40.5/28  ?

Copy and Paste All These IP-Ranges in "Remote addresses" and "Local addresses" Field :

184.173.149.184/30, 184.173.188.104/30, 50.22.78.28/30, 50.97.41.96/29, 169.55.0.224/30, 169.55.40.5/28

PS: Local Addresses Field is optional.

Well if ever you encounter any problems in future use the trial reset developed by idmresettrial

i used to use IP method but Kaspersky Firewall has always problem with it...

eg> Kaspersky firewall forgets IP's If u Update IDM ....so i ditched this method ....so will advice u to use Auto-Trial Reset feature...Its awesome
