I had to reinstall my OS (Win XP Pro) and now when I try to access the PBW site IE give me a pop up box asking what to do with the menu.jsp file. If I try to open it IE asks what program to open it with and none of them work. I can open the site just fine from one of my other computers on the network.
Any Ideas would be helpful!

might it need java that isn't included in XP? IIRC PBW doesn't need it but maybe. Have you tried text based?

FTR, CapnQ has recommended you download the latest Java Runtime (JRE) from http://java.sun.com

We've seen this problem before, but for some reason it seems to be isolated to one or two people. If CapnQ's solution works, please let us know. Thx.

Yes, I did, and it even occurred to me to e-mail the recommendation after I replied on PBW's Admin Requests forum.

Didn't think to look up Sun's link, though. Thanks LL.

I found it...the page does not work when I have proxomitron running (a pop up blocker)...I can disable it but still can't access the page until I got to Tools/Internet Options/Connections/Lan Settings and Uncheck the proxy server box. Then it works fine. This is really strange because before I reinstalled the OS it had proxomitron running for months without this problem.

This is really weird...I was able to log onto the text site ONCE just now but then when I try to return it asked me what to do with the mainmenu.jsp file. I could logon to either site for around 3 hours after I first re-installed the OS then no menu.jsp

I already posted this in the PBW/IE6 SP1 thread, but I use PBW graphics with IE6 SP1 and Proxomitron, and have had no problems since I allowed all PBW cookies. My Proxomitron Version is Naoko-3(b); don't know if that's the most recent or not.
