[hpsdr] Need help - Hermes VNA - Hermes not found

[radio at netins.net]

Thank you for your help Helmut.  I finally got the PC to recognize the 
programmer.

I **think** what I did was to uncheck something AVG (virus program) put 
in the properties.

Now ham VNA works fine.  Oddly, after using Ham VNA I examined the 
properties again and the AVG item was again checked.

Anyway, it seems to be working well now.

Best regards,  John,  W0GN
