- I have a Blackberry Curve 8320 with T-mobile service. I just purchases Empower Pro and am having trouble registering it.
I go to options>security>firwall and it shows disabled. Yet when I click to register the software to go from trial version to registerd version, it says my firewall is blocking the registration.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am in no way a BB Guru. More like a head-banging guru-the longer I bang my head the more likely I will stumble on a solution
The following 3 options are in order of difficulty from easiest to hardest.
OK-this may be hard to believe . . . but it was this simple:
OPTION #1:
1.) I changed all my browser defaults in OPTIONS/ADVANCED/BROWSER from the internet/wifi browser to the t-zone browser.
2.) Warm booted x2 (alt+shift+del, wait for grey screen and immediately do it again).
3.) When system returns to full status open empower (I did not open any email, or perform any other task - wether this matters is unknown) and choose to register.
That is it. Lickity split!
OPTION #2:
Should you not be so lucky, We also had success utilizing the same process above except we first temporarily changed all of the empower program AND module application permissions to "allow" as follows:
1.) go to OPTIONS/SECURITY OPTIONS/APPLICATION PERMISSIONS>Empower>edit permissions. Change all entries to allow. do this for both program AND module and save. NOTE: DO NOT SET/EDIT/APPLY DEFAULTS! just save.
2.) While in Empowers' APPLICATION PERMISSIONS choose reset fire wall prompts.
3.) Warm boot x2 (alt+shift+del, wait for grey screen and immediately do it again).
4.) When system returns to full status go to option #1 above and perform tasks 1-3. Be sure to return to the security options after completing all the steps in OPTION #1 and APPLY DEFAULTS. This will return your settings back to their initial state.
OPTION #3:
This one is ugly The first time we encountered this problem we completely wiped the BB utilizing jlcommander. Reinstalled the operating system (leaving some of the frufru stuff out ) then installed Empower before any other program, registered it immediately and it worked fine. Then we reloaded all remaining programs and then data.
I stronly suggest doing your due diligence prior to wiping your BB A good place to start is searching the forums for "jlcommander".
Good luck,
