Bob I went through the same thing. I ran ccleaner (both cache and registery cleaners), had to repair my installation of iTunes, and reboot. Then I was finally able to restore. Your phone isn't bricked, just keep at it. It will come back.

It's a case of trial and error.We can say for sure now Winterboard don't work and i can also add MIVtones.there should be a now post with a list so people don't install and break things like i am.

If you're still stuck right there when you read this try this;

Close the purpra1n app

unplug iphone then plug back in

then open purpra1n again and hit that botton!

worked for me. Good luck!

According to GeoHot's blog it doesn't work with Windows 7 yet. I'm installing the Windows 7 XP mode and trying that. I'll let you know what happens.

Now it is working properly WoooooHooo
