system:
Windows 2000 prof, IE6 SP1
Problem:
last week javascript popups stopped functioning in IE (although they still work on my system in Mozilla). By "stopped functioning" I mean nothing happens, no errors no nothing, it is as if the browser does not realize the link is there.
Some thoughts:
There's plenty of crap on the web about similar problems, e.g. at various forums, MS community discussion groups, MS knowledge base, etc.... Although I've not found anything that works on this issue. FYI - This should not be confused with a script error issue that seems to also be troubling some people, nor an error some people are getting when they attempt to load updates (these are issues addressed in some of MS knowledge base).
Attempted Solutions:
I've gone through making sure that IE doesn't have something disabled, e.g. tools>internet options>advanced, etc...
I don't have any issues with popup blockers, firewalls, etc...
I've done the start>run>driver stuff
Even went so far as to download Java from Sun and install even though I realize that Javascript has nothing to do with Java
