Internet Explorer: How not to Print the URL on Every page

When I have to print multiple pages from a long website, I prefer not to print the URL at the top of each page.

By default, this option is set in IE.

To remove, click on File menu –> Page setup.

You can change headers and footers of the pages to print.

Default header is &w&bPage &p of &P

You can clear it or change to &p of &P  – to show page numbers only.

Dangerous Trojan horses detected in your system – malware message

I think everyone has received such messages. They insist to download and install a trojan cleaning software. Instead of this, they will install other trojans, spyware and other malware on your computer.

So, NEVER click no OK neither Cancel buttons. Better fire this window from Task Manager /ALT+CTRL+DEL./

The fact you received that message is a sign you already have some kind of malicious software.

To clean it in early stage download MalwareBytes program /it is FREE/, update and make full scan.

Hope this will fix your problem.

Internet Explorer Not Responding problem resolved

If you receive that message, you may try the following 2 things.

1. You may be have too many IE windows opened – close them and try to load a page.

Also may clean the IE cache.

2. Go to registry editor: Start button –> Run –> Regedit

find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\BrowserHelper Objects

and delete all the keys /like folders/ here.

Press F5 to refresh registries.

Then try to load a webpage in IE.

Internet Explorer takes too long to load pages

If you have to wait too long until a web page is loaded in your IE browser, it may be caused of wrong LAN settings. Solution:

 Click on Start button –> Control Panel Doubleclick ‘Internet Options.’ A dialog window is opened. Click on Connections tab. Then click on LANsettings button.

 

In the new window UNCHECK the Automatically detect settings check box.

Click OK and restart computer. So your browser will not attempt to detect proxy setting anymore and will load the webpages normal.

IE javascript problem No Such Interface Supported

If sometimes happened to receive this annoying message No Such Interface Supported /NSIS/ don’t panic.

It is caused by javascript libraries /dll/ not registered.

To register them click on Start button –> RUN

In Run window type RegSvr32 actxprxy.dll

regsvr32 actxprxy.dll

Then Press OK.

The success message appears:

 

dll-register-succeeded

Then do the same with registering the second dll: RegSvr32 shdocvw.dll

This will solve your IE error message problem.

Favicons disappear problem

When you open some web pages from Favorites, you may notice their unique icons, different from the Internet Explorer generic blue ‘E’ sign.

Look for example at Google and Yahoo icons in IE addressbar:

google yahoo favicon

Those kind of icons are called ‘favicons’ and are used as trademark to tell one website from anothers. Also they make site look special.

Google have changed their favicon a month ago with this new purple ‘g’

You can make own favicon for your website. Use any icon creation software like Microangelo .

Create your site’s icon.

Remember! Favicons always are 16×16 pixels sized and 16 colors.

Then save it as favicon.ico and put in your root site folder on the web server.

When you have marked a website as Favorite and opened from favorites folder, its icon is changed.

Sometimes there are problems with that icon.

It may disappear and change back to IE blue symbol if the site cookie has expired. It is because favicon is stored in Temporaly Internet folder.

Favicons may disappear also if you have cleaned your browser casche and deleted tis .ico file.

The solution is to store favicon in separate folder and with right mouse button to favorites properties, to tell the path to that folder.

Internet Explorer 7 mouse wheel opens new tab

I use IE7 so much but never knew that little trick to open links in new tab.

Usualy when you want to open a link in new tab you click with right mouse button, then select ‘Open in new tab’ submenu.

This makes two mouse clicks and one mouse move.

I found a better way to open link in new tab. You maybe know it but it is new for me:

Point the link and click mouse wheel!

It is so simple! It saves me hundreds of clicks!

This little trick works for all kinds of mouses.

Hope to like it.

Internet explorer cannot open the internet site. Operation aborted

I receive this error message many times a day as I browse the Internet. I use IE6.

I did not paid attention, just reloaded the page to solve problem.

Please see the next post with solution of the problem /edited./

Yesterday  I decided to search the web for similar problems.

I was surprised to find out that it is a Microsoft IE bug, they recognised this oh their page.

But on MS pagebug  is only description and advices for the  web developers how to avoid this on their pages using CSS and JavaScripts.  No single word about IE users – what causes the problem. 

I found many web pages commenting this problem. But there were same programming solutions for developers.

Even Google mail can cause this error message! You can check this  by visiting htpp://mail.google.com/mail/ . If you have my IE problem, the error message will appear.

The error message makes many people to change their browsers with FF.

This seems to be one of the worst MS bugs ever!

So for my great regret I have to say – NO solution for this problem for now. /edited/

Just wait for Microsoft to release some update for it.

Edit: see the next post with solution!
