Don't Use IE7 if you Publish With FrontPage

D

DCatHomeUK

Internet Explorer 7 has GONE! FrontPage works again!
The Uninstall actually works fine - the best thing Microsoft has written
maybe?
All those rogue wininet.dll files gone!
FrontPage has now completed two Publish processes perfectly!
Go on guys, don't waste our sad lives trying to sort Microsoft MISCREANT
issues
Just get rid of them!

A wasted a week of late nights, early mornings achieving very little apart
from trawling through vague mutterings and other cries of despair

Now I can just do what I need, then get on with doing something else

You can break the addiction
Windows Internet Explorer Seven – Just say “NOâ€
Go out and meet people
Earn Money
Go on holiday
Make babies (and buy them a Mac)
If not, lets' try Windows 98 again, yes there's no support - but what's new!
(My six year old Dell Laptop has worked fine with it up to now)
OK so I’m just getting excited…

===============================
Background:

:
Since updating IE7 and associated achnges it makes, one of my websites
refuses to update correctly. It aborts the ftp and closes FrontPage with the
following error in the event viewer:
Date xxxxxx Source: Microsoft Office 11
Time xxxxxxx Category: None
Type: Error Event ID 1000
User N/A
Computer xxxxxxx
Faulting application frontpg.exe, version 11.0.6552.0, stamp 424b714f,
faulting module wininet.dll, version 7.0.5730.11, stamp 454283b4,
debug? 0,
fault address 0x00001a35.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. (Doesn't provide any help)

I'm running XP Home with all updates and service packs known to me, and Auto
updates turned on of course... But how come the browser update has affected
another Microsoft Application so badly? Did no one Beta this? I am completely
stuck, and frightened that restoring an earlier point will get me in a worse
situation if that doesn't work correctly (I've never needed to before, and
shouldn't have needed to now surely?).
:
Please try one of the IE news groups.
(Stupid Answer – it affects FRONTPAGE!)

couldn't wait any
longer as I need to do some work, so I decided to do a system restore. I
tried three restore points before my installing IE7 on 2nd November (2 on 1st
November and 1 on 31st October). None of them would restore.

31st Oct was a formal System Restore point, but it came back and said:
"Your Computer cannot be restored to 31st October 2006 System Checkpoint,
No
Changes have been made to your computer."
As this was my third attempt I suppose I have to give up on this "solution"
too?

When will MS acknowledge - let alone find the answer... PLEASE!!!
Initial problem below... (replicated from old threads with some well meaning
some just as deperate, and some plain stupid responses)
==================================================
:
As everything has gone quiet on this one, I have opened the question up to
the You Tube community, to se if I can get an answer in that part of the
virtual world...

Or maybe it's the obtuse way you present a problem. What's really amazing is
your attitude towards those trying to assist.

Maybe you should dump all MS software and go with Linux?

Again sadly you missed the point
I was very happy with XP - best OS MS has done, good updates etc.
I was very happy to try IE7 after IE6.
I am very happy using Frontpage (even if others think it is sloppy)
I was not happy when IE7 screwed Frontpage.
I would not have even looked at FF if it hadn't been for the tabs in IE7
That is all.

I find trolling insinuation offensive.
Ironic again you don't understand I'm happy that everything works now!
I'd have been EVEN HAPPIER if it had been IE7 as I wouldn't have wasted so
much time. Sad that the solution was to remove one MS product to get another
to work again.

Is that specific enough?

I'm sad to say your reply only reinforces the point about blinkers. I've
been here before to try and sort out issues, but haven't needed to for ages.
This issue was a major blunder by MS.

In Internet terminology, a troll is a person who enters an established
community such as an online discussion forum and intentionally tries to cause
disruption, most often in the form of posting inflammatory, off-topic, or
otherwise inappropriate messages.

I wanted 'on topic' solutions, but found nothing beyond - uninstall.
Tell me I'm wrong and I'll unreservedly apologise. (I'm English and know how
to).

Otherwise maybe you could?

Maybe next time you will not describe your problem so poorly that nobody can
understand it.

You really need to learn how to type instead of just using the ctrl-c and
ctrl-v keys

Sheer frustration after a week of getting replies like:
- I should go somewhere else
- "It isn't a problem for me"
- Maybe I'm the cause of the problem
- I shouldn't be using FrontPage anyway

I have always shown full appreciation for people who gave a possible solution
Yet have stated my trepidation from past experiences.

I started this saga with the error codes and information from the event
viewer after the problem occurred. Nobody made any reference to this on-topic
very formal approach. Neither did anyone have any suggestions.

Nowhere in a reply is the acknowledgement that this is a genuine Microsoft
Issue

Is it any wonder things get desperate?
Obtuse (rferring to MS word's excellent synonyms)
If I have been 'insensitive' it is because I felt there was no real support
I felt I was anything but 'dull-witted' in my approach to some answers
'Simple-minded' hmmm that's what I felt I was up against most of the time.
'Imperceptive' hmmm ditto
'Thick Headed' dare I say it again? I didn't want a fight, I wanted help?
'Thick' (I can take it, though I think I'm reasonably erudite most of the
time)
'Stupid' (How thick skinned do I need to be.... stiff upper lip now man)
'Slow' Have you seen the responses?

Look in the mirror
(I do apologise that is insensitive, but I've been dragged into it by obtuse
replies by well meaning people).
"Maybe you should dump all MS software and go with Linux?"
"Please try one of the IE news groups" (Problem in FrontPage)
"Maybe he woulda gotten mo' betta help if he had mentioned that little
tidbit befor"
"Uhmm.. duh, no wonder IE7 did not work"
"IE7 and FrontPage work just fine on my XP SP2 machine" (I'm happy for you)
"...and Expression Web and SharePoint Designer" (Can I have you machine then?)
"As I said, I'm running FP 2003 and IE7 with zero problems"

At the IE and other discussion boards I was being told that I shouldn't use
FrontPage - all I wanted was a solution!

We read what we want to and ignore the rest it seems. I apologise if the
threads became too complicated, but the longer it goes on, the more there is
to read.

I only wish it was different.

Sheer frustration after a week of getting replies like:

- "It isn't a problem for me"
Believeable? I believe it. I have various flavors of FP
installed on 4 machines using XP-Pro SP2 with IE in place.
Some of them also have EWD or VSW on them. I have no
problems with any of the machines publishing.

- Maybe I'm the cause of the problem
- I should go somewhere else
Lets analyze the situation. Other people have no problems
using the same OS-browser-editor combination as you. What is
different between my machines and your machine? What other
apps do you have on there? What SP level are you at with the
software packages. What add-ons are there?

- I shouldn't be using FrontPage anyway
That is your decision. FP is a powerful set of tools for web
developement. If used properly you can have great sites. If
used improperly you get crap and blame it on the software.

- Firefox 2 is brilliant
- Everything works, and I'd never even have looked at it if
it hadn't been for IE7
To each there own. If you are first discovering FF then you
have a lot to learn. I use 5 different browers and FF is #3
on that list
