All of a sudden I cannot Private Message anymore, the box pops up but is blank, no buttons and in the status bar it says something to the effect of java applet error. I'm pretty sure this happened after I installed the new version on Microsoft Virtual Machine (Build 3085). Of course this cannot be uninstalled :( Anyone else have this problem (or try this build) and know of a fix?

There is absolutely no java in these forums, so this problem is on your end. No idea what it could be though. JavaScript is the extent of anything remotely relating to java used.

Thanks for the reply Zuni :)
OK, I see pressing the button executes; javascript:winopen('sendprivatemessage.cfm?........etc.

"Error on Page"

Well maybe I should post in one of the software forums?

The only thing i can think of is you have the WYSIWYG editor on and something in your IE is not working right. If thats on turn it off, either way something is up on your browser.

Are you running any Ad Blockers? If I remember correctly, Web Washer will block out the PM and Profile function. Maybe others will too.

I thought Elite members no longer need the private mail function, but rather they are able to Vulcan mind meld their agendas to all ;)

Scheduled right after The Shield on FOX.....

While on a field trip with his special education students in Palm Bay, Florida, Palm Bay High computer sciences teacher Hank Baron, and TonyH, an FBI agent stranded in the same area, are chosen by extraterrestrial forces to save the planet Earth from destroying itself. The mild-mannered Baron is presented with a special costume that endows him with super-human powers. Complications set in when Hank loses the special alien instruction manual and has to play it by ear being "The Greatest Anandtech Hero." TonyH is selected to aid Hank in his attempts to crush the Trolls of evil like no man had ever done before.



<< Look at what's happened to me,
I can't believe it myself.
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world;
it should've been somebody else.

Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.

It's like a light of a new day-;
it came from out of the blue.
Breaking me out of the spell I was in,
making all of my wishes come true.

Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me
