Perhaps someone here can help me with a sign-in problem with the

Linksys/Cisco forum. Recently, I have been unable to sign in, as a pop-up

box says, "Error: Scripting for ActiveX might be disabled." I don't believe

it is disabled and I cannot contact Cisco to find out why I can't sign in to

the forum. If you have a suggestion for correcting this problem I would

certainly appreciated it. Thanks!

What OS and IE are you using?



If you have 64-bit XP, Vista, or Win7, then IE might balk at some to the

script. You need to be using the 32-bit version of IE. START>PROGRAMS, and

scroll to Internet Explorer. Notice thare are two versions, one of them is

shown as "(64-bit)", use the other one.
 
Hello Jeff.

I'm using Windows XP Home Edition, SP3. My IE is 8. Tried your suggest and

it didn't show anything. I should have the 32-bit version, though. Any

other suggestions?

XP Home is a 32-bit operating system. It's possible that Cisco is having

trouble on their end. I don't have any suggestions, sorry.

Hi Irish Scot(?)



Ensure you are using the recommended default security zone settings in IE8.



Tools>Internet Options - Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default"



If you are still having trouble accessing the site after that AND you

really, really trust the site, add them to your Trusted Sites list under the

Security tab in Internet Options.





Regards.
