jhn Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 HeiUsing nlite, I have modified XP SP2 install disc and removed a lot of services and windows components. Still all was working fine until this weeks microsoft update. After that IE6 doesn't open any new window. Not automatically for certain pages, but not even when chosing "Open in new window".Any idea what I did wrong? Before the update, IE6 done well!

But after reinstalling updates the problem presents again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johndoe74 Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 (edited) so another month, another MS f*kup. Looks like they'll be recalling another patch and Ryan will be releasing another a update, i.e. 2.1.3a Edited October 17, 2006 by johndoe74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johndoe74 Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 (edited) alright this may be in the realm of conspiracy theories but is it possible they could have done this deliberately so the soon-to-be released IE7 would look that much more attractive to people ? Also, it's possible that the file that's f*ked up by this patch might be replaced by a newer version when IE7 ships - again, making it that much more attractive of a downoad and then MS could claim we've had this many millions of IE7 downloads in the first week Edited October 17, 2006 by johndoe74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately my computer is a dinosaur and IE6 is the fastest browser available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
