Hi,

I've been trying to track down the setting for an issue we are having. When users access web sites that return a 401 unauthorised Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 8.1 doesn't prompt for authentication. It works on Chrome on the same machine. I have noticed that for all these sites that fail, that the site is not SSL encrypted. In the end this is a good thing :)

What I have been unable to track down is which security setting in IE is causing the effect. Can anyone steer me in the right direction?

Regards,
Jeremy

IE 11 not able to add Search Provider

This is brand new Windows 8.1 install, freshly installed O365 and all critical updates installed.

So I click on the gear in IE, select Manage add-ons.

This opens the Manage Add-ons window, I click on Search providers, it only shows Bing.

I click on Find more search providers... at the bottom of the window, this opens IE with a list of the search engines. I click on Google, which loads the google search page.  When I click the Add to Internet Explorer button nothing happen, nothing gets added, no message gets display, NOTHING.

I see the button wants to run a javascript, so I go back in add this site to trusted sites, thinking that will allow it to run.  Close browser, re-open, try again, same outcome .... NOTHING.

So next I go and reduce the security level to low for trusted sites, figuring this will allow the script to fire off.  No luck, still nothing.

Next I go to windows features, un check IE 11, reboot, go back in again check IE 11.  Try it again, still nothing.

Finally I installed the Google Toolbar for IE check the box for making google the default search, after install reboot, guess what .... still nothing but Bing listed in search providers.

Is there another way to repair IE 11 on Windows 8.1?  I have done this many times in the past, why now is this such an issue? Can I manually put this into the registry?

I have a user that when they try to log into Duke Progress Energy's website at https://www.progress-energy.com/app/loginregistration/login.aspx it will redirect them to a "one time authentication" page which requires them to use a one-time key to log in on a new computer.  When going to this one-time website (secure8.i-doxs.net) it will get an error message that says...

This page can't be displayed

Turn on TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 in the Advanced settings and try connecting to https://secure8.i-doxs.net again.  If this error persists, contact your site administrator.

Well, I'm the site administrator and I can confirm that TLS 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 are all enabled and forced by GPO.  Restarting IE and rebooting did not help.  Chrome and Firefox both work flawlessly.

Edit: This is IE 11 on Windows 8.1 Enterprise.

I created a javascript for a page that brings in images when I open it. As long as I was working with IE9, the image would show as the proportional width according to the height value I specify.

document.writeln('<a href=http://www.wncomic.com/archive.php>
<img alt=White.Noise src=http://www.wncomic.com/istrip_files/
     strips/' + year + month + day + '.jpg  height=' + When + ' border=0></a>')

The values for "year", "month", and "day" are specified in a script

var day = currentDate.getDate()
if (day < 10) {day = "0" + day}
var month = currentDate.getMonth() + 1
if (month < 10) {month = "0" + month}
var year = currentDate.getFullYear()

and the value for When is specified in another script

When =150

And if there was not an image, IE9 would display a placeholder image with a red x that would be approximately square. But after finally upgrading to IE10, the javascript is acting weird. The placeholder images are now being shown as the height specified but the width of the image is now about 6 times the height, which really messes up the layout of the page. Normally it would all fit on a single screen, but now it forces the page to be about three to four times as long.

The scripts are called in a html page and as it goes through and does that, it loads the images called, but since upgrading to IE10, it looks really bad. I can't tell if it was a change due to some setting in IE10 or what. I upgraded when IE10 and IE11 both came out and it did it then, so I rolled back to IE9. But I needed to upgrade to IE10 and was hoping it was something that might have been changed in the configuration since then, but it still has the same problem.

Any help or suggestions would be welcome. If you need to see all the code (.htm and .js files) I can supply that as well.

My PC was hijacked by malware (MiuiTab, MiniDigital Technology Co,. Limited, SkyTech Mail Update Service, etc). They redirected the About Urls of IE to their own search sites. I have managed to undo almost all except the page that is navigated to when I click on a link pointing to a document on the local file system but where the document does not exist.

I have checked HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AboutURLs, and all of them are the same as on a clean PC.  There is also no Not Found page there.

How do I reset the "not found" page to the default one?  I have reset IE Options Advance and rebooted many times, but the redirection is still there.  The redirected site ishttp://www.ienotice.com/js/notice.js?data=;pDg;....... if it is of any interest to anyone.

Thanks.

I have a link on a webpage from an external SP2013 Internet Site (Non-Trusted) that links to a webpage on an Internal SP2007 (Trusted) site, but when you click on it, nothing happens.

I believe it's because the IE(8) browser will not open a link to a trusted site, does that seem a reasonable assumption? I do not have permission to add the external internet site as a trusted (nor any other IE settings) and the network admins can't confirm my assumption or assist. We do have Chrome available and it works correctly on Chrome, so I'm pretty sure it's an IE issue. We are on XP if that matters.

My question is, is there any workaround for this that I can use on the Internet zoned page, perhaps using Javascript? I've dabbled, but with no success.

Thanks

Hi guys,

I have installed the MS15-065 on IE 11.

after installing the patch.

On Windows 7, the file version for Mshtml.dll is 

Mshtml.dll

11.0.9600.17915

While on windows 8.1. The file version is

Mshtml.dll

11.0.9600.17905

Does this mean that there won't be any version in between? (From 11.0.9600.17905 to 11.0.9600.17915)?

I just ran the MS Remote Connectivity Analyzer on my Exchange ActiveSync access point adn received the error that the analyze could not read the entire certificate chain. ( missing an intermediate cert ).

I went to IE and pulled up my website via IP address to indice an error and allow me to view the cert and , wow, only saw three certs in the chain versus the four that I see from the server. I ran this test from several machine with varying versions of IE and found that:
- IE 8 would view the entire chain ( 4/4 certs )
- IE 9 would view the entire chain ( 4/4 certs )
- IE 11 does not display the entire cert chain  ( 3/4 certs )

Does anyone know of why this would happen?

Tom

When loading a Flash object on a website, I get the following:

"An add-on for this webpage failed to run."

This is due to incompatibility with Internet Explorer. It works fine only in Chrome except for Firefox, which the plug-in crashes. What does this mean?

Hi everyone

I have a problem in my domain, some of the PCs have Certificate issue in Chrome and IE (latest version) not Firefox, the time and date it's correct and we manage update with WSUS. All the PCs are Windows 7 SP1 and the DC is Windows 2012 R2 (latest update). The interesting part is that issued websites in each PC are not as same as the others. I mean one client maybe have a problem with httpS://www.google.com another one have a problem with httpS://www.signatur.rtr.at and another one do not have a problem with these two at all.

I be grateful if you help me

I am using IEAK 11 to create an install package for IE11 on Windows 7 SP1 64-bit. The package works correctly and installs silently but it creates a mystery browser extension.

Name:                   {C95FE080-8F5D-11D2-A20B-00AA003C157A}
Publisher:              Not Available
Type:                   Browser Extension
Architecture:           64-bit
Version:                Not available
File date:              Not available
Date last accessed:     ‎Today, ‎July ‎10, ‎2015, ‏‎22 minutes ago
Class ID:               {C95FE080-8F5D-11D2-A20B-00AA003C157A}
Use count:              1
Block count:            0
File:                   Not available
Folder:                 Not available

The key under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions links the CLSID {1FBA04EE-3024-11D2-8F1F-0000F87ABD16}

That can be found at HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{1FBA04EE-3024-11D2-8F1F-0000F87ABD16} which contains the value name Compatibility Flags with data 0x000000400 (1024).

So it appears to be an Active X control and the compatibility flag seems to be a "kill bit" which tells IE not to load this control. That's according to what little I can find on google anyway. But I'd rather not have the control there in the first place.

I've tried building the IEAK install package several times on different machines both Windows 7 and 8.1 and always with the same extension showing up.

Any help at explaining this and getting rid of it would be appreciated.

Recently, we ran a pilot where FIPS-compliance mode was enabled on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 32-bit computers.  Specifically, the "System cryptography: Use FIPS-compliant algorithms for encryption, hashing, and signing" security option was set to Enabled.  The pilot is over and we turned off FIPS-compliance mode.

Since doing that, I have noticed that the SSL/TLS settings in Internet Explorer 9 are disabled on computers that were part of the pilot.  I know the defaults are:

• SSL 2.0 : off
• SSL 3.0 : on
• TLS 1.0 : on
• TLS 1.1 : off
• TLS 1.2 : off

Now, all of these settings are disabled (grayed out) and the following settings are set:

• SSL 2.0 : on
• SSL 3.0 : on
• TLS 1.0 : on
• TLS 1.1 : off
• TLS 1.2 : off

This affects all user accounts on the system.

The test GPO we used to turn on FIPS mode for these computers has been verified to only be enforcing that FIPS setting.  It was not controlling any Internet Explorer settings.

Here is the troubleshooting I have done so far:

• Reset Internet Explorer via the Reset button on the Advanced tab in Internet Options.
• Put computer in an OU that had Group Policy inheritance blocked, performed gpupdate, and rebooted to ensure no GPOs were affecting the computer.
  
• Verified that local policy was not enforcing the Internet Explorer SSL/TLS settings.
• Ran msconfig, disabled non-Microsoft services, and rebooted.
• Removed the Internet Explorer feature, rebooted, re-added it, and rebooted.
• Installed all available important and recommended Windows Updates.
• Installed Internet Explorer 11.
• Created a new local account and set it to Administrator and logged in as that.
• Removed the computer from the domain.
• Created another local account (with Administrator rights) and logged in as that while the computer was not on a domain.
• Ran the command from an elevated command prompt:  secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose
• As a last-ditch effort, I ran CCLeaner and performed all the Clean and Registry fixes available.

Does anyone have any other ideas?
