Need Some Help

Schmeky · 12-23-2003, 05:13 PM

Can someone tell why when I hit the "Back" button while on the CC Forum I get the famous "You have performed an illegal operation" message and the program promptly closes?

Starting to piss me off.

I used to get that with my old computer sometimes... After reformating the whole hard drive, it worked fine with "no illegal operations".

Maybe a misconfiguration in your computer system? Don't know... I'm not that much of a computer whiz, just my experience...

Make sure you are updating Windows.

It has something to do with your Internet security settings and cookies. Go there and set everything to default. It should take care of it. Are you on '98 or XP? Go to Windows and scan for the latest updates.

Well, everyone's posting different suggestions, so here's mine.

Go to My Computer, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Uninstall Internet Explorer, then Reinstall it. Or start using Mozilla or Firebird.

Gentlemen,

I downloaded the the Microsoft Internet Explorer update (per suggestion) and the problem no longer exists.

Thank You
