- Dialog boxes close automatically.
- Posted by Branden Wolner on June 30th, 2003
Hi,
I've been having this problem for a while. For example, when I get a "Done
but with errors on page" message in the IE status bar and click it, the
error dialog box opens and closes immediately, preventing me from clicking
the "more information" button. Same thing happens any time a dialog box
pops up in IE. This did not used to happen. The only change that I can
think of is that I switched from FAT32 to NTFS (win2k sp3, IE6.0 sp1). I
have spybot-s&d installed but I had that before the file system switch and
this didn't happen. Also I have pop-up-stopper pro but I've had that for a
long time too and even when I turn it off (or allow a particular site) the
IE dialog boxes still close automatically. I searched the KB and couldn't
turn anything up. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Perhaps the item you're clicking on does not require a double click and you
also have Snap To enabled for your mouse. So, while it seems that you're
just double clicking on the error indicator, you're actually clicking once
on that, the dialog appears, your mouse cursor snaps to the default button
in the dialog, and then your second click is recognized.

even open the dialog box at all. Thanks though.

After grappling with this for the past several weeks, I decided to do an
in-place upgrade of win2k. That seems to have cured it.
