Simple stupid mistake, there is a chunk of code that is needed at the bottom of the footer template... when I upgrade vB, of course it said my footer needed to be reverted but when I compared the new/old either it didn't show me the diff or I overlooked it.. As soon as I added that chunk back in everything was sorted out.

This is a change because the EOLAS patent and it will be in all further cumultative patches of the IE and also in the IE 7 final.

It is described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ng_activex.asp

What changes have I to make to get rid of this windows pop-up? As far as I understand, the function must be no embedded but an external call.

Any suggestions? Even if I uninstall the patch - it will be just a question of time when the problem pops up again.

Thank you for your support!

I read once somewhere that ActiveX had some sort of software agreement issue thinger me'jigger with Microsoft and now they require you to agree to start the ActiveX controllers... anyway - it's a big long story and I don't remember it. To make it short - google the error you're getting, and there is a program you can download to get rid of it. This is an error being caused by your own computer software - not this script.

3.6.1 well works

[gothicuser]

Since upgrading both the pager and vB to 3.6.1 I have lost the pop-ups within vBAdvanced ????
Anyone worked out why yet, or know of a solution?
For example, should I enter any variables into the "Portal Output Global Variables" ? in the vBA AdminCP.

I ask this a month ago....There is so many variables. I tried many.But no luck

Thanks for this mod. It is a pity the window closed automatically when you send a message. It would be nice to see a list of the conversation exchanges like in a text chat?

Also sending by hitting the return key would be great as well, rather than using it for a carriage return as this is what is standard in text chat?

I would like to say that my install was just on 3.1.6 and there does not appear to be any problems at all with it working thus far on this version of vBulletin
