    - IE7 wont work!! Wrote a few days ago about friend's troubled computer (no updates/anti-virus for years). Attempted to clean and fix with updates, LiveOneCare, and Spybot....got pretty close, except IE7 would not work....just hung with circle spinning( never even timed out). Went back to IE6, no problems. Re installed IE7 and same problem. Could run "quick scan "from LiveOneCare, but full scans would get to about 80% and freeze (on IE...hmmm). Had Firefox, so I know I was connected and able to access internet. Several posts suggested starting from scratch, which I did last night. Now, I am running XPSP3 (with IE7 update installed after SP3) after formatting HD and fresh Windows install, and still having same problem with IE7!!! When I try to open IE7 without addons, just freezes, and I have to use task manager to close it. I have tried resetting IE settings from Advanced tab of Internet Options with no luck......please, any ideas? Driving me crazy!!!

    - Printing - Vista Business SP1 / IE7 I am running vista Business and am unable to print from any web page using IE7. The problem does not exist in Firefox or with any other application - Office 2007, etc. I am told that turning off 'protected mode' would solve the problem. Is there any fix that is a little less dangerous? Many thanks for any help Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150815

    - unable to print to OneNote2007 in protected mode I've noticed with my two Vista Home Premium SP1 machines that I cannot print to the "Send to OneNote 2007" printer from IE7 when Protected Mode is On. I see a lot of discussions about protected mode and printing. I can still print to a network printer, but not to OneNote 2007. Has anyone else experienced this? Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150808

For instance, I can't view photos on webpages such as these: http://www.littlewoodsdirect.com/rf/lxd/navigation/spreadDsbs.do?categoryId=7360043 http://www.johnlewis.com/Fashion/+Menswear/Jackets+and+Coats/Jackets+and+Coats/1216/ProductType.aspx http://www.additionsdirect.co.uk/rf/add/navigation/spreadDsbs.do?categoryId=7360043 Any help would be very much appreciated!

    - IE7 How to view scripted saved webpages with Internet security Hig With IE6, I could view scripted saved webpages to My Computer and view them no problem even with the Internet Security level set as high. I have just installed IE7 and it doesn't work as before. IE7 now seems to treat saved webpages as the same security zone as intenet pages viewed on the web! I want to keep my Intenet Security level high for general browsing but I want to be able to read my saved emails which I need Javascript enabled to do. And I don't now want to have to change the Internet Security level every time I want to view a saved webpage. It worked no problem on IE6 but I don't know how to get it to work on IE7. Can anyone help me with this? Otherwise I will have to roll back IE7 and stick with IE6. - Peter Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150793

While connected to my corporate network i need the connections>LAN Settings>Proxy settings box checked. I understand I can set unique settings for my VPN at home when wanting to connect to work, however this means when at work and using my direct connection, I have to add my proxy settings to my normal internet startup. What i want to do is have two separate iexplorer links on my desktop, one with my proxy settings set, and one without (for when im at home using the internet not connected via VPN). Can this be done please? Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150780

    - login to live services I am not able to access any site starting with login.live.com. From any live service, I click the sign in link (in Internet Explorer )and it takes me to a blank white page. When I try to log in in Firefox, it takes me to the sign in page like I would expect it to. It also works in Firefox using the IE tab extension, but I am unable to sign into any live service in Internet Explorer. I have tried disabling the windows live sign-in helper add-on in Internet Explorer, but that did nothing to fix the problem. Also, I am able to log in just fine in Internet Explorer on our other computer, just not on this computer. I originally emailed windows live support, by the redirected me here.

    - Service Pack3 and IE7 I use Windows XP home with IE7. I read microsoft article saying that I need to uninstall IE7 prior to install new service pack3. It stated if I install service pack3 with IE7 in my PC I won't able to uninstall IE7 in the future. The ariticle recomend I uninstall IE7 first, then install service pack 3 then re-install IE7 after that. My question is will I encounter with a problem other than not be able to uninstall IE7? also, What kind(degree) of inconvenience will I have if I can not uninstall IE7 later? Should I follow this advice? Thank you in advance for the advice. Meg Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150694

    - Problem with AVG Free 8, Vista Home Premium SP1 and IE7 Installed Free AVG 8 here today on two systems - Vista Home Premium SP1 and XP SP3 with IE7. On the Vista machine, the installation of AVG 8 broke IE7 in opening a second window - it just hung until the "not responding" message appeared. I tried installing AVG without the surfsearch function, and without the Linkscanner module - still couldn't open a second window in IE. Uninstalling of AVG 8 cured the problem. The installation on XP SP3 with IE7 had no effect at all. IE7 behaved perfectly normally. Anyone seen this, and is there a fix? (The reason I went for AVG is that it picked up a virus on my XP machine that Avast! did not.....) Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150677

SP2 contains updates already installed on computer. Restart computer after each update. Eventually, SP2 will show as one update package. Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150649

    - MICROSOFT SOFTWARE AND APPLICATIONS A purchased computer from the store do not have enough memory to operate Windows XP Software and Applications. Windows XP memory need to be 1GB or more to operate IE7 and some other software. Windows XP memory upgrade will effectively indicate a difference in downloading and running applications which scan the computer. Internet Explore 7 will function properly without the proper memory for operating system Windows XP. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

    - IE7 PROBLEMS While working with different brands of computers, I have discovered not enough memory to operate Microsoft Applications and Software. Upgrade memory to 1GB or more for Microsoft Applications and Software to operate normal. Some other applications work better with the memory upgrade. Most errors come from lack of memory; however, no error tell you about memory upgrade as a solution. Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150646

    - Two suggestion about IE7 I updated my IE in Windows XP when the OS advised me. After I surfed the internet some days later, I found something inconvenient concerning tabbed windows: 1. When open a new tabbed window, IE7 puts it on the right of the current tabbed window, but when I read over the pop-uped window and close it, then IE7 will select the right tabbed window of the closed window, which isn't related to the content I am reading now at all most times possible. So I have to click the left tabbed window again to continue reading. This is very convenient, even rendered me won't use IE7 again sometimes. 2.When I push down SHIFT key and click LEFT mouse button on a hyperlink, IE7 will open a new instance to open the window, but I checked the option:"Always open new document in tabbed window". I hope the new document really opened in tabbed window. Thanks. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

    - redirecting ie7 does not work Hello, I=B4am using a ISA Server as a Webproxy. All my internal Clients use this Server as their Webproxy. I=B4ve created a rule that blocks a specific URL: https://mail.corporate.com and redirects the user to http://mail.corporate.com. (So I want to redirect all my users from ssl to normal http). This ISA rule works finde when my client are using ie6 or firefox. But when using ie7 the redirection does not work. The ie7 just says, that it was not able to open https://mail.corporate.com What should I change in ie7 to get this rule working correctly? -- Best regards -Benjamin- Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150641

    - MSN Explorer I like Microsoft but have a bit of criticism on Internet Explorer. MSN Explorer 7.02 (which is the last free version of MSN Explorer) loads pages faster than Internet Explorer, on which is based. However it has some drawbacks, which can be easily solved: *It should be free again. *It should be included in future Windows OS releases as the default browser. *It should become a standalone browser (now it runs 'over' IE), while continuing to be based on it. *A pop-up blocker should be added. *A phishing filter should be added. *Tabbed browsing should be included. *Should have a function to switch between Standard and Advanced mode. The Standard mode will be default mode, it won't require users to sign in with their Hotmail account, but it will be available for use by anyone. Also the E-mail links for Hotmail shouldn't be available. The Advanced mode should include Hotmail integration the same way MSN Explorer includes it now. The switch between Standard and Advanced modes should be easy to do from the browser menu. *Skins should be introduced. I think IE, the 'veteran' browser should retire for good, and MSN Explorer (this time for free and by default) should replace it. It even may not be called MSN Explorer, but Windows Live Explorer, or something like that, because many MSN services now are branded as Windows Live. Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150634

    - Deploy IE7 Silently With WSUS I'm sure this question must have been answered already but I can't find it! I'm desperately trying to get IE7 to deploy using WSUS3. The update has been approved for certain workstations but the installation only occurs when a user with local administrator rights logs in. The status of the update on each client is showing as 'Downloaded'. None our users are local admins so this is a real problem. Is there any way to have IE7 install via WSUS siliently without an admin logging in? Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150629

    - Cannot Access Internet via Proxy Server Hi all Can anyone give me a fault finding procedure to establish why Internet Explorer won't work please? Never had problems with this before, simply put the ip address of the proxy server and the port number into the Lan Settings under the Connections tab and Bob's your uncle - but not in this case! Client is Dell Latitude 830 laptop running XP Pro Server is Win2003 Server running ISA server as Proxy 30+ users connected in the same way and no issues Tried re-inputting all details/logging on as domain admin - still no joy! The user can access the ISA server as this doubles as Exchange box. Anyone any idea where this may be blocked/over-ridden? TIA Phil Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150628

However, when i go to download it it tells me i need to be running internet explorer 7. Then when i go to the download page for explorer 7 it tells me i am already running it....grrrrr? So i go to windows update to download from there, but i can only find downloads that tell me not to download if im only downloading to one computer....what in earth am i supposed to do, it keeps going around in circles? I currently run windows vista and obviously explorer 7. SP1 is not available in my updates nor has it been in my auto updates. Tag: IE6 or IE7 and WMP Tag: 150625

    - IE 7 Opening links in Flash files has now become impossible. Firefox will open these links Safari will open these links IE 7 will not.. This has happened since the need to double click was removed from the programme. I have reinstalled IE 7 twice and it still refuses to work. I suspect the problem is widespread and the programmer responsible for this mess needs fixing. Most people are giving up on using IE 7 as a consequence. The version of IE 7 being used is the latest and has no add ons - it is out of the box as is. Will Microsoft be fixing this problem any time soon? ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

I have been troubleshooting this issue for weeks now with no progress. When
a user navs to a website with a WMP video, he clicks the video link and get
the following message: "WMP was unable to locate this video file. Please
connect to the internet and try again." It's WiFi 802.11G connected and this
issue only happens on his system. I can hit the same site and view the video
with no problems.

I have updated and/or patched IE, Windows Media Player, XP, etc. No luck. I
have turned off UDP streaming. No luck.

Any ideas? I will also post in the WMP forum.
