IE displays source when viewing web pages

[Guest]

I'm having similar problems. I'm using WinXP+SP2, and this is not related to
a firewall (it didn't happen before I had one, and now I'm using the Windows
Firewall with no changes). Pages do display in Opera. I have the latest
versions of Java from Sun and MS VM. Any clues?

Hi FauxReal

Do you have the JavaScript plug-in installed?

Try turning on prompts for Cookies and Active Scripting so you can tell if
anything is happening. You could also open the TIF viewer and see if you
already received it. Make your view Details and order by Last Accesssed.
The Cookie appears as a txt file. There is also a request to use ActiveX
which I couldn't see where it was being used but there is a script which
checks whether the browser can handle Shockwave Flash so I suspect there may
be check for it which I missed somewhere.

The point is that all of that gets done before the page starts being
rendered; so either your User-Agent string or your version of Flash may be
affecting what else is being loaded and it may be that which is causing the
404.

If you don't want to bother with prompting you would also get a different
result simply by using the Security tab slider and setting it to High.

Don't forget to set your security settings back to whatever they were (e.g.
click Default) after testing.


If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps
