A script error is not your fault it is the person that wrote the script for that page.


Check something for me. Go to Tools at the top of IE and click on Internet Options, then click on the Advanced Tab. Under Browsing and if there is no check next to Disable script debugging then put one in there. And under that if there is a check where it says to Display Notification abut every script error then take the check out of

Janet, I checked the things you said and they both were checked and unchecked properly. Funny thing though, when I exited out of the advanced area I got another notification. ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!! I think I have a gremlin that's sole purpose is to drive me crazy. It only happens to me, no-one else in the family has ever gotten one of these notifications. Thanks for trying to help.

How about Tools, Internet Options, Security.....do you have your Security set to high? I have mine set on Custom and don't have a problem.


Here is what Microsoft has to say. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=308260


Even though it sounds like you may have your settings to high it won't hurt to run Adaware or Spybot Search and Destroy for spyware.


And keep your anti virus up to date. If you are using a firewall you might want to check those settings too.


If you have a chance to use someone elses computer for a minute and you go to those sites and still get the scripting error then it might be you.............No, I am just kidding............Janet
