Help needed ---I use FF and did not know there was a problem with IE---when clicking on the forum topic on the left side IE displays an error message “IE can not open the internet site---operation aborted” It is not in our installation as it occurs on your site also. Not an issue with FF or Safari.
Thanking you in advance of your help

I replied to your pm with a few questions to see if I can figure out what is causing this issue.
This is a very surprising behaviour.

For reference, here is the reason for this surprising behaviour:
When loading a page in IE, if a script tries to update a piece of the page before the DOM model is fully ready, IE panics and delivers this confusing error message.
That's why it is imperative for all Javascript code to always wait for the DOM model to be ready (which, by the way, onload() doesn't always verify properly)
