I just got out of my "A Close Look at P2P" session. I'll comment on the session in my next blog entry. First, I want to break the news that Popular Telephony now has the ability to traverse firewalls. The news isn't going to hit the "official" wires until late today or tomorrow. Just another example of breaking VoIP news from Internet Telephony Expo. Boy I love going to these VoIP shows - you get lots of scoops!
Ironic that I just downloaded the latest Popular Telephony client just a few days ago and the software told me something to the effect, "Sorry, Peerio does not work behind NAT firewalls". I was too busy to mess with the corporate firewall, so put it aside to play with for another day.
Now, I guess I have to go and re-download it. Damn it, I hate wasting bytes!
I'm told that the NAT-capable version is available for download right now. So go check it out. http://www.gnup.org/getgnup.html

From my understanding, to use Peerio I need to install 3 different pieces of software:
1. GNUP number
2. PT Inspector utility
3. Peerio444 softclient
GNUP and PT Inspector can be downloaded from the GNUP website. Ok, but how do I get the Peerio444 softclient. I've been checking the Peerio website for several months to find download information and it isn't available with no directions or announcemnets as to what the heck is going on.
Peerio may want to check out Skype's simplicity and customer service/web friendliness.

Try uninstalling GNUP and reinstall.
I had problems with the old PT Inspector not properly downloading the Peerio softclient.
It kept telling me something about "The Peerio client will be available in 3 days". If you're getting that message, you need to uninstall PTInspector and reinstall.
Also, simply running the PTinspector and "upgrading" the old version didn't work for me. Had to do a full uninstall.
You can try a "fresh" PC you never installed PTInspector on just to see if that is the issue. - assuming you have a 2nd spare PC or a laptop.
I downloaded and installed the new version as per your post. PTinstpector installs fine, however everytime I run it, it craps out at file 5/8 trying to get the other files, and then tells me I have lost my internet connection.
I took some screenshots, it happened 3 times in a row, so it can't be me.
Wait a minute. Peerio can traverse firewalls? PT is on the record faulting Skype for weakening corporate security because of its ability to traverse firewalls. How ironic.
