[wdvltalk] More issues with add-ons in IE7

2006-11-29 Thread Perry Gerenday
I read earlier posts about how to enable IE7 add-on but either I don't 
understand the instructions or something is not loaded right for me.
I have downloaded IE7 and upon launch the browser "blurps" and indicates 
that Internet Explorer is running with add-ons disabled. Checking under 
tools>Internet Options>Programs>Manage Add-ons I can see that the status 
of all add-ons is "Enabled". Clicking on a listed add-on activates a set 
of radio buttons that allows me to choose "Enable" or "Disable". I've 
gone through all add-ons and clicked them back and forth making sure 
they all are enabled. Closing and relaunching IE repeatedly only results 
in continuing to run with add-ons disabled. Is there something I'm 
missing, or something flaky with my IE7 download?


Thanks,
Perry Gerenday

Found my problem. I dragged an icon onto my desktop (WinXP/pc) before I 
ever opened IE7 for the first time. Apparently, the icon launched IE7 
with add-ons disable every time, no matter what I changed in the 
browser. I deleted the desktop shortcut and after relaunching IE7 from 
the start menu I found add-ons enabled finally. I dragged a new icon to 
the desktop and the problem is solved.

Why not use the OS generated IE icon instead of a shortcut? Right click on
your desktop, properties whatever tab you set the theme on (running Vista
most XP so I am going off memory) advance button at the bottom left to turn
on the icons for IE network, computer, etc.) Bones is you can access
internet pyrites by right likely this icon of a shortcut.

Perry,

How far this answers you I don't know, but you will have noted my 
request over almost the exactly same problem.For my daughter 
this has been resolved.


It appears that after turning off and making a number of 
unsucessful attempts to restart - the machine citing 'Desktop 
Active' [or Desktop X?]  she abandoned it.


Returning to the machine the following day it has started with 
add-ons working but Desktop Active [or X] now not.


Gremlins are inventive little blighters, aren't they?
