Redhat Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Heya'll.In admittance, I have always used a Mozilla-based browser for browsing and never, apart from WU, IE.I recently added a new machine to my LAN, to be used by a non computer-literate family member. I was giving the dilemma - do I install FF/ Mozilla, or secure up IE.I went for the IE option. I followed the guidelines set out at MJ's site (»www.markusjansson.net/exp.html) and then things went funny with WU.WU worked up until the last step, clicking the "Install Now" button. After I click that, nothing happens. I have defaulted ALL IE settings back to the original settings, and still, i get this issueAnyone explain what's goin on ?

nellie2 Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 What about permissions... is your user allowed to install updates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Man Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Undo everything you've done? Somewhere along the way you've done something to mess it up, unless of course, it never worked in the first place? :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhat Posted July 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Well that's what I thought, so i set everything back to default but no hope :( T'was suggested over at DSLR to re-install IE. Am prepared to do it if needs be :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Might be a good idea... head over to http://www.microsoft.com/ie and give 'er a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Man Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 uhhh... Well, first off, you can't 'remove' IE. It's part of the OS.. (damn you gates!) secondly, how can a program they make not pass thier own test????? Sorry redhat, you've gone beyond me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
