Thanks Dynaletik, The delay is 5 min (300 sec), and I've attached the useroptions and config scripts in case it's something there. They were created in v5.0, which still works with the same files. I get the error if it's started from RunOnceEx.cmd, or by running wpi.hta from within windows. If I copy the WPI folder to the desktop and run it from there I get the same error (with the URL modified apropriately). This was all done using VMWare Player 1.0.1 (with Deamon Tools 4.03 to mount the DVD image so I don't have to keep throwing away disks). That's probably way more info then you need, but hopefully some of it will be helpful. Thanks again! useroptions.js config.js
