682550 2008-06-27 04:09:00 Well I've done as you suggested and did the restore advanced settings. Nothing changed so installed SP3 and still nothing. Most odd.


And SP3! I'm running out of ideas. :(

Go to Start, Run and type:

iexplore.exe /rereg

A blank IE window will open up. Leave it for a few minutes, (it runs silently in the background) then restart the PC and try again.

I mentioned the date and time earlier on, although it shouldn't make a difference, they are right?

Type (or copy) the following text, one line at a time, into the run box. Each time a message 'Dll RegisterServer Succeeded" or something to that effect. Initpki.dll may take a while, make sure you wait for the message before putting the next one in.

Or you can copy the text into a .txt file, and save it as whateveryouwantto.bat, then run it, bit quicker.


regsvr32 softpub.dll
regsvr32 wintrust.dll
regsvr32 initpki.dll
regsvr32 dssenh.dll
regsvr32 rsaenh.dll
regsvr32 gpkcsp.dll
regsvr32 sccbase.dll
regsvr32 slbcsp.dll
regsvr32 cryptdlg.dll

682551 2008-06-27 04:27:00 Another thought - does www.airnewzealand.co.nz work? Try to book a flight, see if it lets you in. wratterus (105)
682552 2008-06-27 05:14:00 Sorry forgot to mention that date and time are correct.
Yes Air NZ works just fine.

Did the iexplore.exe /rereg thing and got the "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage message"
Am a bit nervous about doing .txt stuff. Feel I'm getting in over my head if you know what I mean.
Thanks so much for your help and patience though.

682553 2008-06-27 05:17:00 Yep fair enough. ;)

That's supposed to happen. :p

Copy and paste one line of text into the run box, press enter.

Keep doing it for each line of text.

Don't worry about copying them into a .txt file, just do it the simple way.

After that, I'm outta ideas! :blush: Hopefully one of the other beautiful people on here will have some useful ideas!

Wainuuuii!!! Heelp! :p

682554 2008-06-27 05:55:00 Uninstall it with this ( . macromedia . com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player . exe" target="_blank">download . macromedia . com) <-- direct link

It'll remove all versions of Flash player I think (inc Opera's/FF flash)

Then reinstall it .

Or as it says here ( . google . com/group/microsoft . public . internetexplorer . general/browse_thread/thread/6f1886b4b388fd5d" target="_blank">groups . google . com)

It maybe a permission prob with XP and the flash player

Address the Permissions issue, by downloading from this information

Here ( . adobe . com/selfservice/viewContent . do?externalId=fb1634cb&sliceId=2" target="_blank">kb . adobe . com)

And getting the required files via the links there .

Downloading & Running the SubInACL file to the desktop, then download and
unzip to desktop the Reset . zip file (so now both required files are on the
Desktop) .

Run the Reset command file, wait until it is finished, check the permissions
under Run/regedit/HKey_CURRENT_USER/Permissions/Advanced (checking that it
has changed and has the required info there) .

Then update Flash Player by downloading the Flash Player update from within
C:\Windows\System32\Macromedia\Flash\FlashUtil9d . e xe

682555 2008-06-27 10:46:00 Sorry for answering you late wratterus - between actually having to work today (late on a friday):angry and watching TV I only just really got her to read this about 9.45pm ( didn't see then second page) - I sent a PM but I see speedy actually linked the uninstaller as well, I did have a similar problem, and totally removing flash player did fix it - as the TV says - BUT wait theres More - the latest version of flash player ( at the time) didn't fix my problem, so I installed a earlier version from Here (www.oldapps.com). That worked.

One other thing you can try if the above doesn't work, open IE, Tools > Internet Options > Advanced, under Browsing, untick "Disable Script Bugging" - nothing to lose.

682556 2008-06-29 21:00:00 No worries. Thanks :p

Working late on a Friday! :horrified

Just kidding. Will have to see if olwyn returns today...

682557 2008-06-30 00:54:00 Right Here we go again . I'm beginning to wonder if I'm really up to this but here goes anyway .
Got as far as this below but find I have no Permissions option in Hkey_CURRENT_USER so not sure where to go next .



Run the Reset command file, wait until it is finished, check the permissions
under Run/regedit/HKey_CURRENT_USER/Permissions/Advanced (checking that it
has changed and has the required info there) .

Disabled Script Bugging as suggested by wainuitech .
Haven't tried your run box option yet wratterus thought I'd go subinacl way first . (looked slightly easier :) )

682558 2008-06-30 00:56:00 Yep, cool, give it a go, let us know the result. wratterus (105)
