Problem with IE 11

Wed May 27 15:25:48 EDT 2015

For us, the problem is that we maintain the proxy server setting through Group Policy objects (GPOs) on the server.  This and other GPOs help us lock down the browser to people don’t mess with the settings.  I don’t know of a way of security another browser.

Hardly a solution (or is it?), but have you considered throwing in the IE towel?

If your users are like ours, IE usage is down to around 12% (and that’s if you include our Windows-based lab machines that default to IE…it goes to 3% if you look at users who use their own machines). Given the problems IE has had with most every web standard, and the continuing erosion of marketshare, maybe it’s time to re-evaluate your support of IE.

Of are your machines locked down in terms of browser alternatives (I see you’re in the US Government).

I am seeing a problem with IE11 displaying menus and icons in some services we use. In particular, the menu bar within ProQuest Flow does not display properly.  It works fine in Chrome and FireFox. None of the menu icons display but the alt tags display when you roll the mouse over them.  I almost think it's a CSS issue but I need a solution.  ProQuest has no idea what is going on.  I see this also in the posting page for WordPress sites for the editing menu.
