I managed to reproduce this on one of my test sites i think it was due to a damaged template, let me check the XML is correct

Released 0.6.6 PL1; This is a maintance release that contains a fix to the GCBOS template that causes issues in older versions of Internet Explorer.

Can some one running GCBOS who is experiencing the error:


Please link me to their site either by private message, so that i can try to find a fix?

I have un-installed, but the un-install does not remove the error, not even if you dont re-install, Im not sure what is causing it, but the shout box works fine on the forum page, but for some reason it generates that error on top of CMS page. I have re-installed and error still exists.
