Hey Rob, I added facebook as Trusted Site. now it looks better but with no success. Its opening 3 defferent windows and one of them with two tabs. Do you think we can direct it to open from cmd ? If you want to test it I will allow you to take controll of my computer.

Hi Rob,
There is no need to logout. But im having problems with IE sometimes I get the page cannot be displayed because of a cookie or network glitch.
Is there a code to refresh the page in case of that happens, and If refreshing, does not solve it, to restart IE, and in case of restarting IE to reread the previous command (not the next one)?
One more thing at the end of the script, to make sure IE load completely before moving to the next comand instead of a timer?
Please advise
George.

Hi Rob,

In the attachment the vbs that works just like I wanted, I see that its refreshing or reloading IE when it gives page cannot be displayed at the beggening. But there is one missing thing missing, its after it logs in sometime when its login in or when its loading the second page after the login, it gives page cannot be displayed. Is there a way to make it refresh incase of the page dont fully load?
In other words to have the same code as the one before the login in command ?
