sandeep2504 Posted March 12, 2010 Posted March 12, 2010 hopefully someone knows the answer to this. IE8 is playing up on our vanilla network. When you try to reply to an email in web outlook (this opens a new window) and try to click on links on certain sites all you receive it a blank white page and the page doesnt load and just sits there. http://i43.tinypic.com/6jikp3.png This is only affecting computers in a certain AD OU and only started last week Monday and it doesnt matter if you login as an administrator you still cant reply to emails. IE was deployed via a Windows Update ages ago and these problem only started last week monday. i have tried the following without success: reset internet explorer settings to default upgrading pc to Windows XP SP3 moving computers out of the AD OU to another OU checked windows updates - none were applied recently checked group policies and they are the same policies which are applied to the working computers some software was removed from the OU (flash 7 and Adobe Reader 8.11) recently but i dont see it causing the problem there are no relevant messages in event log i am about to try reinstalling IE8. the only workaround at the moment is to install FireFox. Can anyone think of anything or a reason why??
danrhodes Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Why do I get negative rep when you yoursel fsuggested that an upgrade to Mozilla Firefox fixed the issue??? Cheers
EduTech Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Under the Security Zone for IE in Internet Options, there is a category called Miscellaneous. The option to Allow META REFRESH should be enabled. If you disable it the pages probably wont load. See if that helps, James @danrhodes - maybe it was because it was kind of unhelpful, and could of taken the thread way off topic. (just a thought)
