Internet Explorer 9
KB ID 0000330 Problem The IE9 Beta came out a few days ago so I thought I’d take a look, bad news for Windows XP users as you can only run it on Vista and Windows 7, download it here. I used to be a dyed in the wool IE user, and wondered why on earth anyone would want to use Firefox, Chrome, Opera, etc. That was until I actually installed and started using Chrome. The fundamental problem I have with IE is, its function in life...
IE Crash / Restart Loop
KB ID 0000329 Problem I downloaded the IE9 Beta today to give it a test drive and maybe write a review for the site, and it failed miserably and got stuck in a crash loop. Error: Internet Explorer has stopped working In fact I had to kill it with Task Manager as it kept re-spawning new instances that also crashed. Solution 1. Launch the new IE9 in “Extensions off” mode, Click Start > Type in “iexplore.exe...
How Do I Remove Internet Explorer 9?
KB ID 0000524 Problem There are a number of reasons for doing this i.e. You want the “Javascript Error Alert” back that’s removed in IE9, or your business line CRM wont render in IE9 and setting a GPO to run it in “Compatibility View with IE7 Standards”* does not fix the problem. *Note: Compatibility View Policy can be found at: Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components...
Internet Explorer 10 – Cannot access OWA 2003
KB ID 0000718 Problem At first I thought this was a problem with clients accessing OWA via VPN. That was until I saw it worked fine with Firefox and Chrome.

Whilst attempting to view OWA, Press ALT+F > compatibility view settings. 2. Add in the IP address or URL of the...

Your Current Security Settings Do Not Allow This File To Be Downloaded
KB ID 0001089 Problem After spinning up a new Windows 2012 R2 Server this week, I needed to get some hot-fixes and updates, and I was greeted by this annoying IE ‘Security Alert’. I appreciate that normally you would not be downloading files on a server, but a lot of us do need to download and install software and unless you have Internet access elsewhere you will be stuck. Solution 1. Chances are you will be on a URL...
Vista – Installing Hyper-V
Pete’s Adventures in Hyper-V Part 3 KB ID 0000094 Problem It seems a long road to get to installing Hyper-V, but now we are ready to actually install it as a SERVER ROLE, Server 2008 has many different roles, and Hyper-V is just one of them. However unlike most other roles Hyper-V requires a reboot, if you think about what hyper-v actually does then this should come as no surprise. Hyper-V is (as the name suggests) a bare metal...
Installing the Hyper-V Management Tools
Pete’s Adventures in Hyper-V Part 2 KB ID 0000093 Dtd 10/11/09 Problem Back in Part 1 we looked at getting your Hyper-V Media up to date, the next logical step would be to install Hyper-V, but I’ve never been that logical, and I already had a Hyper-V server at home, So I thought before I went any further I would install the Hyper-V Management tools on My laptop, then I could continue this from the comfort of my sofa. In an...
Slipstreaming Hyper-V
KB ID 0000092 Problem Anyone who has tried the version of Hyper-V that came in the first release of Server2008 may well have written it off as a bad lot, In Microsoft’s defence it was still a Beta product in that initial release, but for many the damage has now already been done. (It seems the mistakes made by releasing “Longhorn Beta 1.00001 to the public have still not been learned). I’ve been meaning to spend more...
