Thanks for the messages everyone :) @slacka thanks, I'll check these forums first in the future and thanks for the comment @jan iversen

Can anyone recommend a different one to try? @lukebenes see here... Also a couple of notes, for this last build I turned off the net connection while building and set my firewall to allow all. On my earlier build, the firewall was active and was prompting me to allow or block various programs while it was building. The build failed when I had gone away from the computer so I'm not sure if that caused it to fail. I'm also using a roughly 6 months old version of the code as I originally tried building it about 6 months ago. P.S. is "@personname" the right way to reference people on here?
