I tried posting a comment 4 times and each time, I got a internal server error, see attached. I noticed that even though I stated that I wanted my name and email address to be remembered, these items were not displayed. So I entered a different name and email address but I got the same error as before.
Then I decided to open a new IE window without closing the previous IE window. I went to TechBlog and was able to post a comment.
The next time that I tried to post a comment, I went to that page, I noticed that I was getting an error message relating to posting comments, see attached.
So, I email Dwight and he stated that I needed to "Turn off debugging in IE, and make sure you're not blocking any javascript."
So I went into IE under Internet Options and the Advanced tab and the settings that I have are as follows:
checked -- Disable Script Debugging
Unchecked -- Display a notification about every script error
UNDER THE Security Tab, Custom; there are these settings and I don't have a clue as to what any of them do or don't do.
Active X Controls & Plug-Ins
Enabled -- Download signed Active X controls
Disabled -- Download unsigned Active X controls
Disabled -- Initialize and script Active X controls not marked as safe
Enabled -- Run Active X controls and plug-ins
Enabled -- Script Active X Controls marked as safe for scripting
Microsoft VM
Java Permissions -- high safety
Disabled -- Active Scripting
Enabled -- Allow paste operations via script
Enabled -- Scripting of Java Applets
I have Visual Studio 2003 installed on this computer and I also have the Sun Java JRE 1.5.0_06 installed.
In spite of the fact that I have scripting errors disabled and no notifications disabled, I am still getting these scripting errors.
I would appreciate any information as to what all of these settings mean and which if any I should change.
Unfortunately, what I have I have discovered is that websites are not consistent in terms of requirements. Originally, I started out only allowing first-party cookies until I discovered that a favorite website required that I also allow 3rd party cookies.
TIA,
Linda

The problem is on the server side not with your computer.
Give it a few days and try again.
This may or may not be the solution to your problem.
Following these steps will solve most typical problems.
Crashing, long boot times, slow or non responsive.
You should follow all of these steps before trying any other quick fixes.
This is for Windows XP but the same tools are in other Windows versions with the exception of NT which does not have a defragmenter.
Run disk cleanup.
(1) Start button, all programs, accessories, system tools, (disk cleanup).
Select the C: drive.
Check all of the boxes except for the (compress old files).
The number one thing that computer users don’t do that keeps a computer running at top speed is defragment.
You should be defragmenting once or twice each week and after any installations.
You can find the defragmenter two ways.
(2) Start button, all programs, accessories, system tools, (defragmenter).
Or open my computer, right click on the C: drive, select properties, on the tools tab, under defragmenting (defragment now).
The next thing that computer users don’t do to fix problems is run error checking
(3) Open my computer, right click on the C: drive, select properties, on the tools tab, under error checking (check now).
Check the boxes to (fix file system errors), & (recover bad sectors), select (start).
You should run error checking once a month.
Visit windows update and download the latest patches and fixes.
(4) Start button, all programs, (windows update).
If you are still having problems you should check your drivers.
(5) The INF drivers are the most important and should be installed before all others.
Visit the web site of the manufacturer of your mother board and check for a newer version. If you are un sure download the latest version and install it. If is the same version that you have the installer will tell you. If you are having problems select install anyway.
You should also check for new video card drivers.
