Re: IE6 Scripting Problesm

Created a new account and it exhibits the same behavior as my wife's account.
No scripting on webpages using ie6. Also, just installed new MFPrinter and
it wont scan on my wife's account. Cannot create msxml instance. Is this
related?

No. My user account works fine, but my wife's is the problem account.
Again, on her account certain websites do not work properly. If she uses
Firefox instead of IE6, they work fine. The problem is she can't even run
MSN software because she can't get to the sign-in screen. I know that
uses
IE in the background.

Sorry 'bout that.

Tell me this: Does the behavior persist in a new User Account after using
it for a few days?

Robert,
I am talking about one computer with two different user accounts. One
account is fine, the other has several ie6 related issues.

Not sure it is relevant, but the computer has McAfee Security and
Windows
Defender. The machine is fully patched with all automatic updates.

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed on the
problem
machine? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What
third-party firewall (if any)? Are the same versions of all of them
installed on the other machine?

Are both machines fully patched at Windows Update?

Mapquest directions give a scripting error. MSNBC.com will not allow
me
to
set my location and give local news. The MSN Premium sign-in screen
will
not load - says there is a connect error when I am connect to the
internet.
I have matched all security settings between both users so I fear
there
is
some registry issue with one account. Short of creating a brand new
account, any ideas for a fix?

Thanks,
