[WEB4LIB] Re: Problematic Sites

[stephanie spearman]

I've experimented with the Internet Options in IE.
Example: under security/custom I disabled "submit
nonencrypted form data"--that caused the type of thing
you mention--forms could not be submitted. In this
instance it affected ALL sites. Also, when I disabled
all activeX, people couldn't get pdf docs to come in.
Disabling javascript won't let new windows pop up (if
they use js to call it). Just some of the things I've
run into.
