Hi All,

I am running IE6 in winXP SP2. The problem is whenever there is a hyperlink or anything related to Javascript it does not work.

eg. whenever i try to book tickets in airdeccan after a certain stage when the java script enabled button comes into picture it simply stops and "page cannot be displayed " comes..

please help ...

this might be a case of curropt java runtime files or a situation of corrupt winsock files, have u tried firefox ? does the same happen there ...

here is what u should do --

1) Restore all IE settings to default....
2) Ensure there is no firewall blocking the access to java or IE....
3) uninstall the java runtime files.....
4) Reinstall the same ....get it from here....
Java Runtime Environment Free Download
Its the basic runtime enviournment , if it needs more it will automatically download and install.....
5) Download WinSock XP Fix download and review - fix XP internet connectivity from SnapFiles and run it and reboot.....

pls get back with results :)
^^ p.s : all above mentioned pts are generic , a screenshot of the exact error message or u mentioning the exact error message would be gr8 help in solving the issue.......

1. If u face the same in firefox , then this would be a browser hijack or an issue with the winsock files. please check on that.....

2. uninstallation is from >Add/Remove Programs --> It will be listed as :
J2SE Development Kit OR J2SE Runtime Enviournment. Uninstall it just the way u would uninstall any other product.

3. This might be a concern with a spyware attack too, did u have one recently ?

4. Best u can get the kit of : JDK 5.0 Update 14
from Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5

Browser issues are many a times PITA , a lot of patience and a lot of things will solve it eventually :)
 
Bingo after removing JRE and installing JDK5 my issue is solved :))

thanks a lot for your help ...

but the adobe issue persists .. please do write back ...

As far as possible stick to IE6 , its way better than IE7 IMO....however if u like IE7 so much , FIREFOX! is the way to go , regarding the acrobat reader issue ? do u mean to say that u can't install acrobat anymore or u cant use the convertor anymore , however in both the cases u need to

1) How To Uninstall Adobe Products at Instant Registry Fixes
2) Reinstalling using the installer.

Should fix either of the issues.
