From PDFCreator-Setup Log:

Seems that the license activation/check link has changed.

https://license.pdfforge.org/ to api-developers.avanquest.com/license/v1/license-keys/init

Had to have a new exception created to allow access. this is resolved. Is there a feed when changes like this are coming about so we can stay ahead of versus reactive?
