Game Join Problems

Ok, i log onto Winbolo.net and go to active games, click the join button and then the error report for Windows XP comes up. We are sorry for the inconvienence but Internet Explorer must cancel something like that.

What's Up? I use the tracker if i have to, i just like the clickable game joins more...

??????/ :cry:

Please type the exact wording of the error message received including title bar.

Internet Explorer has encountered a prbolem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenie
This error report includes information regarding the condition of Internet Explorer when the problem occured; the operating system version and computer hardware in use; your Digital product ID, which could be used to identify your license; and the internet Protocol address of your computer.


Happy? I had to retype tha without seeing if it was typing and what it was typing. I really would like it to copy and paste...

:x

Its an Internet Explorer error message. Does it happen with other web browsers?

Some things to try:
1. WinBolo associates itself with winbolo:// URLs when it is started. Try starting WinBolo and quitting for it to recreate the association.
2. From the start menu, goto run. Type in: winbolo://localhost:5000 then click run. Does it start WinBolo?

hmm...

I clicked on that first linky blue letter and it gave me the message and then shut my window, makingme renavigate back here. I triied the other run command and it brought me to the join by address function of joining a game...

I don't wanna use other browsers.... :(

OK GUYS, give me a link for the download of the best other browser....

I expect fighting....

I like Opera: http://www.opera.com/download/

Others like Firefly: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/download.html?http%3A//ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/0.9.3/FirefoxSetup-0.9.3.exe

Every time I've had or seen a problem with IE, it's been because of other 'questionable' software installed on the system; e.g., filesharing programs that cause various kinds of fatal errors, adware that interferes with normal operation, search engines that override important settings, etc. I think IE is an excellent browser if you can identify the other nasty software bullies that are beating up on it :D . Using another browser is perhaps a neat fix, but it only sidesteps a problem that should be dealt with directly.

FINALLY! Someone else that uses Opera besides me!

And I believe it's FireFox, unless they've changed names again.

Opera roxs. And yes, it is FireFox, as you can see from the link. Guess I was just thinking about a bad scifi western tv show...

I thought firefly was excellent.

Firefox, its a great browser, but get a slightly older version like 0.08, there is never any problems with that version, but the newest version still has some bugs.

I think it's the same problem I had with many first season(s) of a show, the acting is just so bad I can't bare to sit through it. I couldn't watch star trek tng the first few years. But I have a very high tolerance for scifi, maybe it was the western that got me.

*Gulp

sorry guys, can't figure out if it's the browser or which is best. My CPU died, at least that's what i think... check general chat for suggestions...


It served me well, i think five years...

Good ol' AMD :)

I use Mozilla. It is bundled with a IRC client called Chatzilla.

Edit: Looks like Microsoft layed off its 'Spellchecking' department. :)
