Great news! Have you tried updating your javascript? Also, check the
information here, it may be that one type is more compatible with one type
of Javascript than another.

You have not mentioned the version of Windows you are using, but, you can
try the information below that fits.

You can update your scripting engine. The latest scripting engine can
be found at:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/webdev.asp

For 2000 and XP go to
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=c717d943-7e4b-4622-86eb-95a22b832caa&DisplayLang=en
The install includes a new jscript.dl


Hope this helps.
