Scripting error after sp2 update

[Guest]

Once the sp2 update was loaded I am now getting a scripting error on Ebay
and two other sites. Ebay is the worst with a scripting error on 20-30 lines
on each page. Looked at deleting IE but it doesn't show up in the Add/remove
box. Also when trying to reload , states newer version is already installed
and will not allow it. Any ideas??Thanks in advance

What happens when you do the following?

GO to Tools > Internet Options > Advanced (tab)
Under browsing
- check the option "Disable script debugging"
- un-check the option "Display a notification about every script error"

The Disable script debugging was checked.
The Notification box was unchecked.

At this point (while waiting for a Microsoft MVP to post) I would consider
creating a second user account - with administrator privileges of course.

Then after adding your network connection you can see if this problem
'follows' the new user.

Hi,
E-bay pages contain a lot of javascript. Work through these steps:

Clear the IE cache. IE> Tools> Internet Options> General> Delete
files (and delete offline content when that dialog pops up) It's often
recommended that the TIF folder be kept at about 50 MB (Settings.)

Check any third-party security programs to see if one of them is blocking
javascript, scripts, scripting, active content, pop-ups, etc.

Go to Internet Options> Security> Internet Zone, set it to Default.

Try these two commands from Start> Run> cmd [enter]
regsvr32 vbscript.dll [enter]
regsvr32 jscript.dll [enter]

Reinstall the JavaScript engine. Go to
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/webdev.asp
for the appropriate download.

This doesn't sound like a malware problem, but do you run (at least)
Ad-aware occasionally? http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/
