Internet Explorer
A collection of hints, tips, how-to articles on using the bane of our existence: I**nternet Explorer**. Thanks to Kenny over at [|Ironwood Ridge High School] for this tip he forwarded on to Technology Department. We've all experienced those annoying "//**Debug Now?**//" alerts that happen when visiting a poorly created web site that uses JavaScript to //enhance// (?!?) the web-browsing experience. Here's a quick fix Kenny found/put together to at least suppress the alerts:

Syntax/Debug/Scripting error
If you are getting the Syntax/Debug/Scripting error follow these steps to resolve the issue.
 * 1) Open Internet Explorer (the big blue E)
 * 2) Go to Tools at the top
 * 3) Drag down to Internet Options
 * 4) Click on the Advanced tab
 * 5) Under Browsing check the box that is labeled Disable Script Debugging
 * 6) Close Internet Explorer, you are done.

No Graphics in Internet Explorer
A minor glitch in the Novell Netware ZENWorks policies sometimes turns off the multimedia options (images, movies, animations) in Internet Explorer. Here's a quick fix:
 * 1) Open Internet Explorer.
 * 2) Go to the TOOLS menu and select Internet Options.
 * 3) Click on the last "tab" that is in the top of the window -- ADVANCED.
 * 4) Scroll down about half way to the "Multimedia" section. Make sure the following all of the options in this section have a check mark in the box next to the entry EXCEPT for "Don't display online media..." and "Show image download placeholder" -- leave these unchecked.
 * 5) Hit apply and refresh/reload the current page -- pictures appear.

If you have this problem in Firefox, then do the following:
 * 1) Choose TOOLS menu and select OPTIONS.
 * 2) Click on the CONTENT button along the top of the OPTIONS window.
 * 3) Click on the LOAD IMAGES check box and then click on OK.
 * 4) Hit the REFRESH/RECYCLE button and the images appear.

Problem with webpage email link not opening Outlook
Gary Serencsa provided this fix to Amphi Techs dealing with the issues Microsoft has with its own software. Users were clicking on email links in Internet Explorer with the expectation that Outlook would open automatically (it wasn't) with the Send To line prefilled with the linked address. All that happened was a **//bazillion//** Internet Explorer windows started popping open. Gotta love that Microsoft application integration!
 * 1) Open Internet Explorer
 * 2) Click on the tools menu at the top of the window.
 * 3) Select Internet Options from the list.
 * 4) Click on the Programs tab at the top.
 * 5) Click on the drop down list for Email and select Outlook Express then click apply.
 * 6) Click on the drop down list for Email and select Microsoft Office Outlook then click apply.
 * 7) Close Internet Explorer and then reopen it to try an email link.
