How can I get rid of the search box at the top of my browser just right of the tab? I did the Tools/Manage Add-ons thing and removed it from there but it keeps coming back. It’s starting to get annoying! 

Thanks

Disabling and Uninstalling Al Naddy toolbar. Removing it from the Registry. Still it is on the landing page.

Please suggest any solution.

Problem Viewing gpresult report from local drive via Internet Explorer 10.

I am in the process of upgrading our systems from IE8 to IE10.  I have noticed when I try to view a gpresult html report saved to the local machine, all of the headers are expanded.  I do not have the option to show all or hide all.  Is seems like the format is not as clean.  It is not displaying properly.  If I open the same file from a shared location, it opens just fine.  I am wondering if there is a setting that is causing this format to be off when I open an html file from the local machine.

How do I permanently STOP the Bing Suggested Sites icon from being in the IE 9 toolbar foreveryone and make it the default for all new users

$

Non of the other post on this subject were correctly answered and they are now old so here is a new thread for a question that a Microsoft Engineer should have answered a long time ago in one of the other threads.

 I have IE 9 installed.

I am setting up my default profile which will be used for ALL users to configure their profile when they log on. All profiles are destroyed on system reboot. All PCs are frozen.

Every time I log in as a new user and open IE 9, the favorites bar shows up as I want it with NO BING Suggested Site crapware in site. Then about .5 secs after IE starts and the Favorites bar is shown, the EVIL "Bing Suggested Sites" button appears.

 I can delete it and it seems to stay away until I delete the users profile folder etc and have them log in again. When the profile is recreated the Favorites folder does not have a "Suggested Sites" option in the c:\users\username\favorites\links" folder. (I have deleted the hidden .ini files in the default folder) Nor does one exist in the "c:\users\default\favorites\links" folder from which the newly created user profile folder comes. But as soon as I start IE 9, one is created and placed in the users favorites links folder. This MUST STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is UNACCEPTABLE. AND IT MUST BE STOPPED!!!!! Where in the Windows 7 x64 Enterprise OS is the location of this evil action and how do I PERMANENTLY delete it.

I don't EVER want to see the EVIL BING Suggested Sites button anywhere on the PC especially in the Favorites Tool bar on IE 9. An I expect/demand that Microsoft tell us how to 100% cannot fail get rid of it for ALL USERS FOREVER NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!! I have spent a lot of time perfecting my default profile making sur that ALL options are decide by me NOT MICROSOFT. I NEVER USE SYSPREP as that will destroy ALL custom defaults every time.

When a user logs in in to one of my PCs and they start IE 9 they get REAL Google for the default search engine, not the version Microsoft will give you which first sends all search requests to Microsoft so they can spy on what you searched in Google for etc., but real Google, not sent to Microsoft 1st. (I'll bet more than 90% of the readers of this site did not notice how if you let Microsoft set your default search provider to Google, they fix it so that all search requests go to Microsoft 1st, before it gets sent to Google. Look at the search string under manage your search providers, in IE 7 & 8. In IE 9 it is hidden, but still there. HOW EVIL OF MICROSOFT)

With my default profile IE does not ask how you want to set it up, I have already made those decisions. I have made all those decisions for my users. But as of recently I have started installing IE 9 and now this unacceptable BING Suggested Sites junk ware keeps showing up. HOW DO I STOP IT. Do I have to put a line in my HOSTS file to send all request for Bing.com to 127.0.0.1 just to make sure that it can't be used. There by removing all possibility of my users ever being able to use Bing FOREVER.

I would rather not do that but unless a Microsoft representative will tell me how to keep that useless Bing Suggested Sites button from appearing on the Favorites tool bar I will have to. I would love to let my user decide if they want to use Bing and waist their time trying to find good search results, but I will not have it forced on them and I will not allow it to be on the Favorites tool Bar ever. So will a Microsoft Engineer please tell us how to put a permanent end to the "Bing Suggested Sites" button for ALL users ALWAYS FOREVER.

Thanks,

Ralph

Outlook.com, Account Settings and IE11

$

I was requested to move this post to the IE thread.

I was checking billing today on my MS account due to an unexpected charge on my credit card. I logged into Outlook.com, accessed account settings then billing. When I accessed the billing page, it prompted for a code since it was the first time I had accessed billing on this computer. When I entered the code, there was a checkbox to remember this computer so I checked it.

The charge did not appear so I decided to check my wife's account. When I tried to log out from the billing screen I could not. Every time I checked logout, it just returned me to the same page. I then closed IE11 and logged back into Outlook.com with my wife's account. When I browsed back to the billing page, it opened up MY billing information, not hers. Oops, this is bad if I let someone use my computer to access their Outlook/MS Account.

To go a little further, I decided to purge all browsing history from IE. I unchecked "Preserve favorite website data" and checked everything else. Repeated the process and logged in as my wife, I still get my billing information and I can't log out.

Normally I would just call this annoying, but due to the potentially sensitive nature of the data, this is a security issue.

How to stop IE10 ignoring Tab Settings and opening new pages when target="_blank"?

$

This question was posed back in February without a satisfactory answer or any resolution. It isNOT a web developer question.

I never had this problem with earlier versions of IE all the way up to version IE8. Just my new IE10.0.9200.16635 with my new Win 8 Pro.

My Home Page is a 15 year old HTML file of custom bookmark links. Included among them is a page of Newspaper links, each newspaper link when clicked would replace an earlier newspaper link. Example codes: [edit: links werenot accepted]

1. "NYT Link" target = newspaper - New York Times

2. "WP Link" target = newspaper - Washington Post

When I clicked one #1, NYT would open in new tab. Click on #2 and WP opens in that tab, and so on down the list...

It continues to function flawlessly in the latest Firefox but I'm damned if it will work in IE10 where it formerly did in 6 and 8.

I don't want a plethora of windows opening - just open tabs in one window only. I have my reasons.

Before anyone asks, I'm not computer illiterate, this new PC is custom built by me sourcing components from many different vendors. I have successfully run my own internet web sites for over 15 years. Those are probably the reasons I have largely crossed over to Win 8 Pro with an absolute minimum of problems since 24th June.

Many thanks in advance

Send link by e-mail doesn't work (internet pdf - protected mode on)

$

Hello,

we are actually facing an issue with IE9.

The function 'send link by e-mail' works very well (Outlook as default program) for any intranet and internet webpage.

However, it doesn't work when we access an online pdf on internet : nothings happens when we select 'send link by e-mail'. It works when we access a pdf stored on our intranet.

I have done some tests and it comes from the protected mode, when protected mode is on then this function has no effect (for pdf documents). When the protected mode is off then the function works again.

This problem concerns only pdf document, is there any explanation or a solution to solve that problem ?

Thank you in advance !

IE 11 and compatibility view

$

I have various reports generated by Windows Server DFS Replication that can only be viewed in IE9 or IE8.  When using IE 10, I had to manually change the compatibility view option to support IE8.   I recently upgraded to Windows 8.1 Preview and am using IE11.  I can no longer view these reports nor place IE into compatibility view.

  

Can you tell me how to display a webpage in IE8 compatibility view when using IE11?

  

Note- I've tried F12/Emulation/User Agent String = IE8.  It didn't do anything.  I've also tried alt/tools/compatibility view settings/adding the website to the list.  It won't add this html file to the list.




Would I like Autocomplete to...NO, NO, A Thousand Times NO!

Please,

How do I stop this pop-up nag bar from constantly asking me if I want to turn AutoComplete on? I have all checkboxes for AutComplete unchecked in Internet Options/Content and even have unchecked both use inline autocomplete options in Advanced but I still get constantly asked if I want to use AutoComplete.

I would never like to use AutoComplete EVER thanks for asking and don't ask me ever again! Sadly isn't an option in the AutoComplete section. Is there a registry change I can make so I never see this pop up again? I searched for this online but so far have only found countless methods of unchecking the boxes as I have done already. I was even tempted to turn the pop up blocker to max but I doubt it would work on this.

Thanks in advance.


Automatic Switching between tabs in IE9

$

Does anyone know of a tool that will automatic cycle between open tabs in IE9 (or IE8) at some sort of interval (30 seconds for example)?

I found such a tool for Firefox, but I'm displaying things that will only display properly in IE. 

I also found a tool that will simply rotate between open programs (alt tab), which could work by just having two separate IE's running, however I need to show the 2 pages in full screen mode, and for some reason the alt-tab tool is not working when one of my screens is in full screen mode.  I also find that I can only have one IE window in full screen mode at a time.  All the tabs on that particular window will be full screen mode, but if you load a separate instance of IE it won't run in full screen mode.

I'm displaying some reports on a large 55" display.  They display in IE, and I want to rotate between a couple automatically.  I suspect I could code the pages somehow, but that's more advanced than I can handle.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Cannot select from drop-down in IE10

We have an older application that offers a variety of drop-down lists from which the user is allowed to select values. In IE 10 the user cannot select values from drop-downs, this is not a problem in previous versions of IE. The drop-downs use JavaScript. We have tried altering the compatibility settings in IE 10 but that does not resolve the issue.

Cannot open .pdf documents in Internet Explorer 9

Since upgrading to IE9 (64 bit) I cannot open pdf docs, instead I get a message box asking me "What do you want to do with NavController?"  Options are Open, Save & Save As. Open does nothing, Save & Save As only save as a file type I can't access (NavController).  I do have the Adobe add-on enabled, the website from which I'm trying to open the file is added as a safe site, and I've tried reloading Adobe to no avail.   Any ideas?  Thanks

changing img.src cause memory leak

$

I try to generate thumbnail with HTML5 canvas

the idea is simple, use img to load and draw to canvas

function createThumbnail(url){

var img = new Image();
img.onload = function(){
    var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
    context.drawImage(...);
    context = img = null;
}
img.src = url;

}

but some how i found that even i have set the img = null, but the memory usage (monitor in task manager) are keep growing.
when i rapidly call the createThumbnail method the memory usage are growing and finally "Not enough available storage to complete this operation" will throw at the line where img.src = url
at this point memory usage are 1gb+ 

I have try to reuse img object but still same.

this is happen on IE10 (8,9 not tested) but no Chrome and Opera

Any idea? 

Thank you very much.

How to manage the size of WebCache in IE10 using group policy

$
0
0

I've been running into some issues managing the size of the new IE10 WebCache.  I am running a terminal services server where the users have local profiles.  The users have a disk quota which was previously set to around 20MB.  This had always been a sufficient amount prior to IE10.

After the upgrade to IE10 we noticed that many users were suddenly hitting their quota and discovered the culprit, WebCache.  Since then I've been looking for ways to manage the size (or existence) of the WebCache, but haven't come across any good solutions.

I have updated my domain controller with the Win 8/Server 2012 policy files and tried the setting which appear to have been created for this purpose.  None of these setting seem to do what I am expecting. Here are some of the settings I have enabled under Settng User Configuration/Policies/Admin Templates/Windows Components/Internet Explorer/

  • Internet Control Panel/Advanced/Empty Temporary Internet Files... = enabled
  • Internet Control Panel/General/Browsing History/Allow sites to store app cache = disabled
  • Internet Control Panel/General/Browsing History/Set app cache expiration time limit = enabled (1 day)
  • Internet Control Panel/General/Browsing History/Set maximum app cache storage limit all domains = 10MB
  • Internet Control Panel/General/Browsing History/Set maximum indexed database all domains = 10MB

Does anyone have any information on what needs to be done to get this new WebCache under control?

Server-side image map web pages do not work properly on some, not all, MS operating systems (IE9 only)

$

When the mouse dwells over the image map area of the server-side web page the following occurs: The map coordinates text box appears and flashs at a very high rate; The IE process take more and more memory the longer the dwell time, to a max of about 1.9 giga bytes (I.E. there is a memory leak); The CPU usage spikes during the mouse over dwell period, and remains spiked during the after dwell time catch up period (it seems to use about 100% of 1 cpu, overall cpu load depends on how many CPUs you have); The IE window locks up until the text map coordinates box buffer is cleared (can take up to an hour after moving the mouse away from the image map) (on my computer the ratio is about 1 to 1, meaning for every second of dwell time, it will take a second with the mouse NOT over the diagram for the text buffer to be exhausted. I.E. one minute of dwell time creates two minutes of text messages).
 
As far as I know this issue only occurs with IE9. On previous versions of Internet Explorer server-side image maps always worked fine.
 
This issue has been found on 3 computers so far: Two windows Vista 32 bit and one Windows 7 32 bit. However, it worked fine on a friends windows 7 64 bit computer.
 
I wrote some web notes with more detail including a link to a screen shot showing memory and CPU usage
I also have an example server-side image map web page.

I have searched and searched and not found anything about this issue anywhere (which is maybe just because I didn't find it)
 
All computers tested were current with windows updates.

Originally, I posted this issue elsewhere, and was referred to here as possibly a better place for it.

I guess I don't really have a question. I am just trying to help by pointing out something that doesn't seem to be working properly. The question might be: Is Microsoft aware of this issue? and when might it be fixed?

IE10 Scrollbar color issue

I have installed IE10 and I am wondering if there is a way to change the color of the scrollbar.  The light grey is so light it's hard to see.  I have tried a few things and searched around and come up with nothing.  I love the preview otherwise and would like to keep it but this one thing might make me use another as I swap back and forth between IE and Comodo Dragon.

Thanks in advance,
