	I can't login to my forum. It only happens on one PC. Microsoft had a bug with update 908531. It added new security and a file named verclsid.exe The problem would lok up browsers until the verclsid.exe process was killed. $MS came out with a fix for this (a registry hack). It solved the problem I had with MS Word (it wouldn't save files another result of the new security file) but I still can't login to my forum. I have tried firefox broser etc but it doesn't work either. Any ideas? Thanks, John Cesta

	I just installed v 8 and followed the instructions - I put it on a test machine to make sure everything is cool before going live. I cannot login with the administrator supplied details it just keeps asking me for the username password and gives me a new code over and over. I have v 7 running and i can login to that no problem so i know its not my system I got em both on an XP PRO box running latest IIS and ASP. They are in different directories so they wont conflict

	It sounds like your server has an issue keeping the ASP session and or ASP Application, thus dropping the details stored in the web servers memory. If you can not fix the server issue, then you need to edit the file 'functions/functions_session_data.asp' and change it so that it uses the database to store the forums session data and not the servers memory.

	I figured out what was wrong - I just had to set the default webfolder differenty and now it works. I finished up the email component - thats working fine I configured the system to use aspSmartUpload but it doesnt seem to work the as described. The test screens it comes with to upload are NON FUNCTIONAL - but when I try via the forum, it allows me to do the full update, then it doesnt post the message. I get a new_post.asp page which gives an error Any ideas why

	It sounds like the upload component isn't installed correctly, until it is you may find you get the type of errors you mention. Try using Dundas Upload, it's one of the simplest to setup and is free.

	Well I actually went to their site and tried to find it and its not listed as downloadable anywhere. Also I checked my uploads folder and the files are actually uploaded and sitting in the TEMP directory.....I guess awaiting approval . As the person posting the message I dont ever get confirmation - it just gives me that error and page cannot be displayed- it seems like the upload ASP section is working but this is an error coming from the forum system itself Not really sure - but i know the image did get transferred. I had a remote user try it and it did transfer as well I tested the aspSmartUpload using the test uploader they provided - after I fixed the config problem - and all of them worked to transfer files up and down - so that aspect IS working....just not via the forum Do you have a link to the Dundas ----- cuz I coulndt find it on their site
