Re: [Vo]: Possible problem with LENR-CANR. Please check. CANCEL

Cancel alarm. Reset. It seems to happen with any Acrobat file, 
anywhere on the web. It must be an interaction with Internet Explorer 
and PDF Plus!


IE is a can of worms.

Since you mention this problem, I would like to remind those who own a 
PC that all of these problems can be eliminated by getting an iMac that 
runs both system OS-X and Windows. The Mac can be used on the internet 
with Netscape, which avoids most of the nasties and the Windows version 
can be used for everything else, if you insist. Microsoft is not the 
only game in town anymore.

occasionally for websites that do not work otherwise. Just now I tried 
to download a paper from LENR-CANR.org. It gave me the following message:


This website wants to run the following add-on: IE PDFPlus OCX from 
'Zeon Corp. (unverified publisher)'. If you trust the website and the 
add-on and want to allow it to run click here . . .


This happens with papers converted recently using the program PDF plus!, 
and also with papers compiled years ago using the original Acrobat 
program. If anyone else here is using Internet Explorer 7, or some other 
version, please try to download a paper and let me know if it gives you 
this message. I have never heard of PDFPlus OCX from 'Zeon Corp.


I hope this is not some sort of virus that has invaded the website, and 
I hope this warning does not frighten off readers.
