|
From: jim.cox on 7 Jul 2010 17:57 Doing the monthly server security patching last night I included the ie8 hotfix as suggested by windowsupdate On system restart I got a message about being unable to find an entry point in AD pack And now IE will not start up at all The application log shows an IE error with ulmon.dll - and it appears the file version remained at v6 So how do I sort this one out ? - especially since I no longer have acces to the internet or windowsupdate from that machine? advTHANKXance Jimmy =mjc= ..
From: Susan Bradley on 7 Jul 2010 21:57 What exact IE8 hotfix? Add remove programs, uninstall. Uninstall IE8 while you are at it since you shouldn't be surfing from the server in teh first place. jim.cox wrote: > Doing the monthly server security patching last night > > I included the ie8 hotfix as suggested by windowsupdate > > On system restart I got a message about being unable to find an entry point > in AD pack > > And now IE will not start up at all > > The application log shows an IE error with ulmon.dll - and it appears the > file version remained at v6 > > So how do I sort this one out ? - especially since I no longer have acces > to the internet or windowsupdate from that machine? > > advTHANKXance > > Jimmy > > =mjc= > . > >

From: Susan Bradley on 7 Jul 2010 23:42 I didn't say remove IE, I said uninstall IE8. You can leave the server at IE7 and be just fine. jim.cox wrote: > Can't remove IE entirely - need it to access windowsupdate :( > > > > > "Susan Bradley" wrote: > > >> What exact IE8 hotfix? >> Add remove programs, uninstall. >> >> Uninstall IE8 while you are at it since you shouldn't be surfing from >> the server in teh first place. >> >> jim.cox wrote: >> >>> Doing the monthly server security patching last night >>> >>> I included the ie8 hotfix as suggested by windowsupdate >>> >>> On system restart I got a message about being unable to find an entry point >>> in AD pack >>> >>> And now IE will not start up at all >>> >>> The application log shows an IE error with ulmon.dll - and it appears the >>> file version remained at v6 >>> >>> So how do I sort this one out ? - especially since I no longer have acces >>> to the internet or windowsupdate from that machine? >>> >>> advTHANKXance >>> >>> Jimmy >>> >>> =mjc= >>> . >>> >>> >>> >> . >> >>

The server was IE6 (which is probably where the problem came from) Uninstalling IE8 lerave us with no browser, wont it? "Susan Bradley" wrote: > I didn't say remove IE, I said uninstall IE8. You can leave the server > at IE7 and be just fine. |
