Hello Mike Many thanks for the benefit of your in-depth knowledge. I will go ahead and de-activate the compatibility assistant. I'm looking at the 'Windows Seven Forums', and it seems I need to install a little program to achieve it, which they supply. Hopefully that will stop the script errors etc.
Yes, it is disappointing that Vista is not compatible with IE11 and IE12 which causes me to use Chrome I'm not too sure of the response procedure, whether to click on reply or to re-address the reply to the group - so we'll see where it goes.

Legacy doesn't explicitly use IExplorer! It uses the Internet Engine that is built in to Windows. This is the mechanism used by Legacy when accessing the internet directly, and is one of the ways Microsoft got around the browser unbundling requirements of the EU. You can set the default browser opened by Legacy to be Chrome (see option 11.1), or if Chrome is defined as your default browser, leave the option empty, but Research Guidance doesn't go through a browser, therefore it will always appear as if IExplorer has been used. -- Regards, Mike Fry (Jhb) Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
