I have just done a clean install of Win95B and, when getting onto the
internet, I am getting the following error message:

An error has occured in the script on this page. The script operation has
been cancelled

In frame: msn_msncomv9

[line: 100] Syntax error

document.all[sznameOfFlashObj.....etc

Will appreciate your help.

Thank you!

Nels

Close all browser windows.
Click Start>Settings> Control Panel> Internet Options> Advanced tab:
Check the box for "Disable script debugging"
AND
Un-check the box for "Display a notification about every script error"
Click OK.

Glen:

Tried your first suggestion, below; I do NOT have an "Internet Options" on
the Control Panel (I only have an "Internet" option which does not have any
boxes referring to script, etc.).

Before I proceed want to let you know that the version of IE is 3.0
(4.70.1158). Could this be part of the problem? Do I need to download a
newer version before I go further?

Thanks.

Nels

Oh golly, yes! You are getting script errors because IE3.0 cannot handle the
scripts the web pages are trying to run. You should install the latest version of
IE that will install on Win95...IE5.5 SP1

MS no longer has IE5.5 SP2 available for download, but you can get it
here....beware, it is a very large download (~84MB):
http://browsers.evolt.org/?ie/32bit/5.5_SP2

You may also be able to find it in the hidden folders of an older AOL disc.

When installing or updating IE, you must first close all background apps and disable
the virus scanner and screensaver.

I usually recommmend this procedure:

Reboot.
Open the Temp folder and delete all Temp files:
-Click Start>Run, type %temp% and click OK.
-Press Ctrl+A to select all, then press Delete.

Delete the Temporary Internet Files:
Click Start> Settings> Control Panel> Internet Options> General tab.
Click the Delete Files button, then put a checkmark in the box to Delete all
offline content, and click OK, and OK.

Close all open windows and running apps.
Disable your anti-virus and screensaver.
Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete, and End Task on everything except Explorer and Systray.
Install Internet Explorer.

Glen:

Another thank you is in order. Installing IE 5.5 apparently solved the
script problem, too.

Sure appreciate all the trouble you have taken to help me.

Best to you!!!
