    - IE 7 Vanished Shortcut is still on the desk top and when I click it, I see the home page but can't open anything, get measage "IE Cannot display the webpage Ran diagnostic and fooled with this for two hours then realiazed that it didn't work because the program just isn't there any more. It's disappeared off the "All Programs" list, but "Add/Remove programs" shows it installed at 2.94MB C:\WINDOWS\ie7 I see six folders labeled "Spuninst" (With blue file names) C:\WINDOWS\ie7 updates holds three folders of updates, but I don't find a reference to IE7 Any where else. Computer is virus free and except for myself, no one uses it. No apparent reason for the program to leave. I would appreciate advice on where to find it, if it's really gone, advice on how to remove the remains. Suppose I will have to install IE6 off my disk to make a internet connection before I can download IE 7 again, or is their a better way? -- Linusverl Tag: improvement to browsers Tag: 146037

    - Possible to enlarge text without zooming whole page? I am switching from firefox back to explorer. The one feature I miss is the ability to increase font size on a page with ctrl + and decrease it with ctrl -. In explorer, those commands increase and decrease the size of the text but they do it by zooming the whole page. When I get the text big enough, part of the page is not visible. So this is not really useful. Can I make the font bigger but not zoom the whole page? Thanks much! Sarah Tag: improvement to browsers Tag: 146029

    - IE7 History by Security Zone I came across an oddity (at least I think so) in IE7 which I feel is annoying. I have searched and can't find any mention of it so I am now wondering if I have something set wrong. I was looking through my history one day to find a site I know I visited the day before ... it wasn't there even though the history went further back in time. Several days later was looking at history again when I realized the issue. History is Displayed for the Zone you are in. If your home page was added to a "Trusted Site" then when you open IE7 and look at history, you will only see Trusted Sites listed. You have to browse to a webpage that is in "Internet" to see those pages. I this the normal setting ? Can it be changed ? Tabs bouncing back and forth are annoying enough at times, but having to open seperate IE windows to see History is a bit much. Tag: improvement to browsers Tag: 146018

    - Script errors I am using IE4.0 in a virtual Windows 95 because my host machine (Vista) can barely access the internet because the "Dependancy service/group" died. On the host, I can't surf the web but can go onto remote desktop. On the virtual, I abandoned IE4.0 because of "script errors". I now use Netscape and Opera to surf the web. The only browsing on IE I use is "Active Desktop", which i have because of the upgrade from IE3.0 to IE4.0. I also got outlook express, the "log off" start menu moved into the main menu, Channel surfing (doesn't work), and that's about it. I also upgraded DUN to 1.3, which helped me quite a bit with Dial-up. Any ideas on how to fix the "script errors"? Tag: improvement to browsers Tag: 146015

At first while surfing the net it seamed to be Adobe Flash player that caused this, but now im not so sure, since I have followed the solution on abobe's homepage and un/reinstalled Flash player with newest version. My thoughts is that this is one of many Vista problems out-there. Some kind of error caused by an update. I'm using Vista Home 32bit Danish, on a Toshiba Satellite L40-139 laptop with 2GB of memory. For me to se this is clearly a Vista error, but what is causing it to just happen out of the blue? Anyone have a solution? Thanks in advance JBJ Tag: improvement to browsers Tag: 146007

    - No Access to IE or AOL Out of nowhere, there is no longer the ability to access IE or AOL. Mozilla, however, works fine. We have a Dell computer, one year old, which is running on a Cable connection, OS Windows XP Media Center, SP2, no router, just directly connected to the cable. When you click on IE, it gives you the message that the page cannot be displayed. When trying to sign onto AOL, it just says, "Goodbye." We tried to reset IE by going to Internet Tools/Advanced/Reset. No luck. Tried uninstalled our anti-virus, and even taking off the Windows firewall. We have reset the modem as per the instructions and it allowed us access to AOL ONCE, but that was it. Next time, it wouldn't let us on again. We have restored the computer to a previous time, no luck. I even installed IE7 again and tried the beta IE8, but still no luck. Does anyone have any ideas why this should be happening? Again, Mozilla does work, but IE and AOL won't. And they both did at one time not too long ago. Thanks for any ideas anyone may have. Tag: improvement to browsers Tag: 146005

    - cookies resetting to lowest in internet options when starting brow It all started when I had problems with setting up my network. I heard that Norton can cause problems, so I uninstalled it. During the uninstall process, I think Norton gave me a parting gift. (A couple viruses and some spyware and Malware) Since then, I reinstalled Norton, also installed Ad-aware, ran full scans, and more scans every other day. Keep getting more viruses, trojans, ect. Also Norton is telling me it blocked an attack from....My own PC!! I seem to have everything cleaned up now, but the cookie setting in Internet options keeps resetting to the lowest setting. I created a shortcut on the desktop and reset it myself several times a day. I tried uninstalling IE 7 and still had the same problems. I also have repeatedly deleated the cache and offline content and add-on info. also tried expermenting with disableing add-ons. This is as far as my computer knowledge takes me, can anyone out there help me out?

    - Make IE prompt to save a .csv file rather than opening it in a We are accessing one of the websites on Win XP Pro that provides an option to download a file, but rather than prompting to provide a file location on local computer, it opens up that file directly in IE browser. It will prompt to save that file on one of our XP computers but the other XP computer will opens that file directly in a browser so i am thinking it has to be a configuration/settings issue on the other computer. I went to Windows Explorer, Tools -> Folder Options -> File Types, selected CSV from the list and click on advanced and both computers have "Confirm Open after Download" option checked. Is there any other setting that needs to be checked to make the other computer prompt to save a file on local computer? Thanks, Hetal. Tag: improvement to browsers Tag: 145861

    - Windows Vista/Windows Server 2008: GUI Improvements Required Hi, Evaluating Vista/Server 2008 for migration from W2k, W2k3, XP I noticed a couple of drawbacks when using those OSs. I've compiled the problems and put them all into one issue here instead of creating separate issues for all of them. -- 1 -- : Keyboard handling: It's very straining to use Vista/Server 2008 by keyboard. It should by far be better supported, like in the previous Windows versions. Current drawbacks are: -- 1.1 -- : Common Dialog File Open/Save boxes are missing keyboard shortcuts, e.g. for creating new folders (previously <ALT>+<F>-<W>-<F>). -- 1.2 -- : Using Windows Explorer with the keyboard becomes horror: -- 1.2.1 -- : Opening Windows Explorer (=WE) with <FLAG>+<E> gives focus to the ListView instead of the TreeView control. So a reverse Tab <SHIFT>+<TAB> is required to navigate the tree. (It's very uncommon that any action is required at the "Computer" node, so TreeView navigation is usually *always* the first thing to be done in Windows Explorer.) -- 1.2.2 -- : Navigating the WE TreeView doesn't update the ListView. It's required to hit the [RETURN] key to get the ListView updated. This makes browsing quite awkward to do. -- 1.2.3 -- : Tab sequence in WE is very strange! Usually, switching focus between TreeView and ListView is just a one-tab sequence (you just have to press the <TAB> key once). But after hitting [RETURN] on the TreeView, the ListView becomes 4 <TAB> hits away! -- 1.3 -- : SQL Server 2005 Management Studio doesn't provide a quick "Open Database Connection" shortcut (previously <CTRL> + <O>, now only <F8>-<ALT>+<V> [on German version]) -- 1.4 -- : Internet Explorer 7 doesn't provide a shortcut for setting focus to the address bar (formerly <ALT>+<D>). So it's very hard to correct typos after hitting [RETURN]. (Awkward, but yet best workaround: <CTRL>+<E> - <SHIFT>+<TAB> - <SHIFT>+<TAB>) -- 1.5 -- : The new Start menu is very unhandy. Just mentioning it to keep the classic view available in future Windows versions: I've traditionally arranged my (classic) start menu tree in a way to quickly reach any program by simply pressing the <FLAG> key plus the first letter of a Start menu entry to finally reach a program entry (e.g. <FLAG>-<P>-<O>-<W> which is "Programs - Office - Word 2003" ...or... <FLAG>+<P>+<D>+<8>+<S> which is "Programs - Development Tools - 8_Visual Studio 2005 - S_Visual Studio"). (This is more easy to do in German than in English because of default entries starting with the same letter in English [e.g. "Accessories/Administrative Tools"]). So I'll stick to the classic Start menu version. -- 2 -- : Copy File dialog doesn't provide useful information. Even after updating Vista to SP1, the Copy File dialog still doesn't display which file currently is copied. So when copying large files the user can't tell which file is currently copied and, thus, isn't free for use. -- 3 -- : Color Schema: Hover color is (almost) same as selection color. So it's hard to tell if an entry has been selected of if the mouse pointer is just hovering above a ListView entry in WE. -- 4 -- : Back button in WE doesn't provide a history list. So it's impossible to go back in history and skip a recently visited folder that might have become unavailable. -- 5 -- : WE and Common Dialogs are missing "Navigate to parent node" functionality. Thanks for taking the time and eventually forwarding my concerns/suggestions to the Vista/Server 2008 group.

    - Internet Explorer freezes although I have a very good and fast sys Hello everyone, I have a new Toshiba laptop with 1.6 duo core and 4GB PC-5300 RAM. It is XP Media Center Edition. It is fully updated such as windows update,java, etc. It has no spyware nor virus and no messy softwares. However, when I bid in ebay, I always press F5 to refresh the page every 2 or 3 seconds so that I can bid in the last seconds. However, strangely, in the last minute internet explorer freezes and nothing responses until the auction is over. Very disappointing. It happened 2 times already. I have no problems with Opera browser. One more disappointment is I have a HTML document with 14MB size. When I open this document with IE, nothing appears in the internet explorer page (i.e, blank) and I have to end task. When I switch to open with Opera browser, no problem at all. I have a very solid system and I do not think it has nothing to do with the system. Could anyone help me out with this IE freezing problem? Thank you very much.

    - Add-on box always coming up in IE 7 running Vista Each time I open IE 7 running Vista I receive a box saying that an add-on needs to be installed. When I click on either cancel or continue nothing happens and it keeps on repeating itself each time I open IE 7. At one point I was able to click on the arrow key to get details and noticed it wanted to add Flash player. I did that but still I get the add-on box each time I open IE 7. Any suggestions on how I can stop this box from appearing? -- Cheers, hd Tag: improvement to browsers Tag: 145805

    - IE7 - How to get tabbed browsing events / navigation?? I cannot figure this out for the life of me. I want to monitor where a user navigates to in IE, and I've found code that will do this beautifully for the first tab in an IE7 browser. (In IE6, the code was awesome, worked perfectly). However, I cannot seem to get it to work in any tabs that are created in the browser. This is unacceptable for the project I'm working on, so I need to be able to capture navigation on a tab as well. The code I've started from can be found here: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/IE_Activity_Monitor.aspx The problem arises in that the WindowRegistered is the same for all tabs in a given IE window. So, when a user opens a new window, the handle is logged, and navigation is captured through the events. However, when a new TAB is created, the handle is the same (because it's in the same shell window), but none of the events trigger off the original handle. Any insight / suggestions / help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance. Chad Tag: improvement to browsers Tag: 145796

from time to time, there is a really nicely design graphic file or a
nice looking photo, but when it is displayed with a smaller size on IE
or Firefox, the browsers, trying to save time, will make a coarse
resize shrinkage of the original image... and it looks pretty bad. is
there a way to tell the browser by HTML / CSS / browser settings, to
take more time to refine it?

especially, when the page is loaded and the 2GHz Core 2 Duo and Quad
core is sitting there doing close to nothing... why not spend 1/1000
second to make it look better?
