On every page on this site that I open !
I can click to cancel the debug of course, but it's a Pain In The Acronym

Turn off Script errors in your browser, that way they are ignored and not displayed. This happens from time to time, as they are changing things in the web design a little, especially if trying to resolve an issue in browsers other than IE.

Turn off Script errors in your browser

Thanks, Peter.
Tried that, error display is a ready turned off according to IE.
And I also turned on "Disable script debugging" and it still asks if I want to debug!

I think it needs a whack upside the CPU :(

This is probably a silly question Paul, but worth a try, did you click "apply" after selecting and deselecting?

I tried "apply" and "OK" both of which should have done the same thing.
At home I have no problem, only at work.

So I guess since I'm up to date on IE security patches and they're not, it's their fault :(
Thanks, Lara!

They should be keeping security patches up to date and be running service pack 1 . So maybe it IS their fault huh? :)

Ran AdAware on my machine, and it gave interesting report.
497 entries found ... Including one "malware" program which turns out to be a keystroke logger.

It was in the profile of our IT manager.
I think he was trying it out, as he said he has the server for remote storage, and the client for remote colllection from that server.

Since removing that, IE has been working a lot better !!

Yikes, lots of spyware there! You may want to try another free program if you haven't already. I run both Adaware and Spybot. Spybot picks up some files Adaware misses and vice versa.

Oh um, sorry for getting techie here, but reg clean wouldn't hurt either ;)

I use both SpyBot and AdAware as a matter of course.
I also run eTrust for AV in real-time and Sophos AV scans of the whole disk.

I just don't trust one program to catch everything that the scum put on my PC :)


I think this is part of a commercial spy package.
Which is why the AV programs don't report it.

SmartWombat-
That error should be gone now. Somehow some old code got into the forums software. It's been fixed and there shouldn't be any more errors. Thanks for letting us know and thaks for being patient while it got fixed.

No problem. I'm annoyed I couldn't get my IE to cooperate on ignoring the error !

I do I.T. for a living, I know how long it can take to debug and fix.

I've been in computing since 1970, saw the rise of the Z80/S100 bus, the Intel CPU, the IBM PC and Windows version 0.95 and the death of Digital Research, of CPM and GEM. I networked with IEEE488, CP/NET and MP/M before Ethernet. Then Zilog Z-Net on coax. We had separate graphics CPU and separate graphics memory, we had overclocked I2C bus (before USB) and intelligent peripherals on the multidrop serial bus. But because it wasn't IBM compatible al our ideas were before their time.
All of which makes me ... OLD
Next I'm growing pointy hair and going on management courses :(
