My IE8 is up-to-date?
I'm not sure if my IE8 is up-to-date with the latest updates. How can I be sure?
You offer something to Windows updates? If this is not the case, there is nothing to download.

Some flash videos show not except as an administrator
Flash to work properly. Now, some flash videos work very well and some don't appear at all. If I go to login admin or IE running as an administrator, then it works on all sites.
Details:
Win7 32 bit IE8 all up-to-date, current flash (done a uninstall and download a new copy).
Used to work correctly on logon 'A' (not administrator). I don't know if it started due to lack of right with a few changes. Only change I made recently is to install Office 2010 (2007 was installed before). Videos that do not only see as an empty box and an icon of the space booked as a missing graphic. He doesn't even know what a missing flash element. About half the videos very well work and the other half are missing. If I right click on it, it's like contextual right click on empty space, just defalt, menu, no menu flash. If I start as an admin or run IE8 as administrator then all flash videos appear fine. Type of defeats Win7 improving generally running as non-admin. widows firewall has the default value for a working network. Authorized programs list does not show IE8 or Flash, so they are not explicitly blocked or allowed. Default Internet security settings. Any third party other than AVG free just security to make local virus of surveillance. I don't want to run IE8 in admin mode all the time. Why is - this has changed and how to fix it?
Thank you
In fact, I found a solution to this shortly after I posted. The first symptom, what we saw was that png files are not correctly displayed in IE7. For example, google on google.com image is a png and he would simply have an image place holder. Upgrade to IE8 fixed this problem, and only after IE8 that we noticed the program Flash. Anyway, long story short, start Microsoft FixIt 50198 - security for Windows/IE7/IE8 Editor
Let me know how it works for you. I beat myself for 2 weeks looking for a solution and this fixed it! Hope this works for you, too.

How can I recover my old data settings document files firefox bookmarks and favorites of ie8.
I need to reinstall windows xp sp2 I turned off my pc by updating the os now I ask a question after the reinstallation of the sp2 would be it possible to recover my old data settings firefox favorites bookmarks of ie8 and norton antivirus 360 documents.
You might see if this folder is located on your computer. Depending on how you installed Windows, it could be an old version of some files in pre-installation.
C:\Windows.Old\
But beyond that, there's no other place I could think that perhaps it would be after a reinstallation.
Shameless plug for the new version:
If you used Windows 8, all of your documents, files, Favorites, bookmarks are saved on your Microsoft Account so that you can use them even if you get a new computer (or reinstall an old one). -
I have a x 86 pc with Windows XP Home Edition SP3 and IE8.
While preparing for a possible update for Win 7, I thought repartioning and "multiboot" my HARD drive.
I tried to get WinXP operating as best I can. I was also check out how to use the Windows Recovery Console to reinstall WinXP and transfer files to a clean reinstall.
Found while searching "All boot paths" to Start\Run\msconfig\BOOT. INI that one boot path has been highlighted with errors indicating that "file is corrupt because playing a disc error has occurred" and that NTLDR is missing or corrupt. In fact, it is blurred. It points to "Recovery Console Microsoft Windows/cmdcon. I've not used the Recovery Console, ever.
I have a desktop Gateway 5310 S (detail) and no original XP disc, apparently.
I have, but never used, a 4ea. set of recovery CD as of 12/05/05 I need to have created after purchase.
I also had many, odd, problems that come and go, including worth displaying various websites, Yahoo Home Pages and E-mail that keep switch to compatibility mode or outright deletion. The video and audio on Hulu and video-on-demand online services are always out of sync. I have problems with editing posts on sites like this even if I can edit my profile fine pages.
This particular set of problems started recently and very suddenly, from one day to the other. It was after he worked actually pretty good for a change.
I don't know how long the boot.ini file has been damaged, I actually discovered by chance.
I can also not to reinstall some programs such as Family Tree Maker 2005 and 2008, when it was suggested to me by ancestry.com to uninstall/reinstall.
I have the latest Java and Adobe Flash Player. I've defragged and disc verified my discs.
I used CCleaner to delete temp and unwanted files per day. I ran Hitman Pro, MBAM, MBAR, MSE and SAS several times without detected virus or malware.
And, as I mentioned above, I have problems with the editor of this site, right now. Sometimes it just freezes and I have to leave to clear. Other times it's duplicating entire sentences. He also flip/flip flops between a Publisher full page and, as now, a half page window of the editor on the half left of the page.
Suggestions from what people you can come would be greatly appreciated. This gets really annoying.
Thank you

When you check the paths in the boot.ini file, and the recovery console is installed, you will always get an error message indicating that the startup path is not valid.
If the recovery console is actually corrupted just to uninstall, you can reinstall or burn a cd with the recovery console.
go here for instructions on deleting the recovery console.

Here's how to make a bootable xp recovery console cd
Courtesy of JoseIbarra
You need start by booting in XP using a CD Recovery Console, you can do (no XP media required) and run a chkdsk with error correction command enough times until it is clean and if it does not, you can create a new boot.ini file (this is usually one of two things).
Here's how:
Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do. Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.
Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.
If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget what you have (no XP media required).
This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.
You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.
The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:
RC. ISO
Download the ISO from here:
http://www.thecomputerparamedic.com/?p=8 (courtesy of Daavee)
Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:
When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.
Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:
http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61
It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.
You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive. These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load. If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.
When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:
Press any key to boot from CD...
Installing Windows... going to pronounce.
Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.
Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)
You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).
You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS. It's the same as the
C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.
The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.
For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:
A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.
In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.
Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem. It won't hurt anything to run it.
Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:
CHKDSK C: /r
Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.
It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck". Be patient. If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something. Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress. It may even seem to go back sometime.
You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.
Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.
You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.
===============
as for the other problems:
did you use Registry cleaners?
These can damage your system
You seem to be free of infection, it would seem that a part of your process cleaning has removed a necessary file.
===============
Checkdisk with parameter/r should be run. and run it again until there is no error.
==========
you are fully updated and patched to Microsoft updates?

Data execution prevention closes ALL programs constantly, (it is NOT an IE8 problem-associated).
I'm running Windows Vista 64 x.
2 months ago DEP began to close programs, any program, all programs, at the start of about 3-4 programs will be immediately closed and it usually takes 2-5 tries to get another program to run.
I've been a losing battle, trying to find the cause of this, I downloaded nearly every free anti-spyware/malware program out there. I have been looking online for other references to this same problem and I can't find anything. Windows Security Essentials and Privx are not the root of the problem.
I've disabled all my toolbars, in a Word, help.

site does not dispay column in one line (line feed) would but properly in IE8.
When I upgraded to FF23, the display on a single page will break as follows
SummaryNewsChartsResearchValue AnalyzerTechnicalInsightEstimatesCompany ProfileFinancialsOptions
but in IE8, it displays as
SummaryNewsChartsResearchValueAnalyzerTechnicalInsightEstimatesCompanyProfileFinancialsOptions
Every word is surrounded by a box, but cut and paste does not include the surrounding areas.
In addition, a page does not break a column of data, but the overlays on the first column of data. I use the column designates two pieces of data on a page separate from the text. When I use the the Style of Page view, the No Style page displays correctly spaced data. I tried different fonts, but were unable to correct the display. I tried to disable the plugins but changes not.The filenames for images that are downloaded are not reported in the images/uploads/media folder.
Are you sure that this page has not been enlarged with Firefox?
https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/font-size-and-zoom-increase-size-of-Web-pagesYou can use {Ctrl + 0} (zero) to reset the default page zoom
IE renders the narrower borders on the left and right side of the page. And there is a slight difference in the sizing of police, which could explain the difference in this summary to the menu bar Options horizontally. It would be nice to see the page view Source coding for this Web site.

JavaScript question - do not click on dates in a calendar
We try on online tennis court booking site. When I click the calendar icon to select a date in the calendar, I can click on the date, but he does not at that date.
Other browsers such as Chrome and Internet Explorer work fine. It just goes straight to the date I click.
<"rel = 'nofollow' > http://demo3.onlinecourtreservations.com/Reservations.asp > demo version"
<"rel = 'nofollow' > http://mum.onlinecourtreservations.com/Reservations.asp > our trial version."
Here's what I sent to the developer and his answer is below.
My Question: When you use the calendar for date selection tool, I noticed that it will not to the date on the calendar that I click. I can navigate using the arrows of day view and the view arrows week next to the icon of calendar very well.
DEVELOPER RESPONSE: The calendar tool is based on javascript, so the security of your browser must allow scripts. To do this, the simplest method is to add your site to the "trusted sites" on your browser.
The steps I've tried:
1. the reset of the functionality of Firefox
2. clear all history
3. start in Safe Mode
4. check to make sure that javaScript is enabled and it is.I wonder why this works fine in Chrome and Internet Explorer and not Firefox.
Could someone help me solve the problem?
Thank you.
If you use this script, you can change it?
The pop-up tries to submit a form hidden in the main window using a standard, old SEO method. You can correct the script in the pop-up window, or you can create a reference in the main window.
Method #1:
Change the code in the popup
reservation_window.frmCalendar.submit();
for this
reservation_window.document.forms['frmCalendar'].submit();
Method #2:
In the main window, create a global script variable that creates the missing reference:
window.frmCalendar = document.forms['frmCalendar'];
Once solve you this problem, there is a new number. Web site empty, and when you view the source, you see that there is a problem with one of the hidden form parameters.
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d' Type mismatch: 'CInt' /demo/common/reservationssheet/script.asp, line 25
Since it is on the server, I don't know what goes wrong, but the script apparently don't deal well with a time value start missing. For what it's worth, I get the same error in IE8.

The question < bit much > says it all - there are several financial web sites that provide the account chart activity. With IE8, I could copy the mires and paste them into Excel with each "category" mentioned in individual cells (text and digital). This allows for monitoring and handling and, at least in some cases, was better than the "Download" function provided. When I try it with Firefox, all data is pasted into a single cell (reminds me of a delimited file importing - if digital indicators / text or cells separators are not identified correctly Excel will import all the data into a single cell).
