    Any tips on getting CRM 4 to work in IE9?  All rollups loaded and the front page works fine but then you can't do anything on any of the pop-up windows.  It's like th Javascript isn't running in the background???

    PLEASE HELP! How the F*** do you disable the "backspace" keyboard sortcut?

    Hi Jarren - sorry not 100% sure what you mean

    do you mean the behaviour where if you are on a page and you press the backspace key you go back to the previous page viewed?  If so I am not sure you can, and I think it may have been around in IE for quite a while

    pop-up windows in games on facebook do not work,or I do not know how to get them working again,do have facebook set as site allowed for pop-up but no effect...anyone know how to help me out??

  • http://search%20term/ page not found - oops - who forgot to test before deployment?
    7 Apr 2011 2:38 PM

    In my old IE8, I turned off "search from the address bar", and now that IE9 has instlled itself, my search box is gone, and I still can't search from the address bar, but they also deleted the *option* to turn this off or on as well!

    They also removed the ability to pin-open the favorites menu, so it's no longer possible to place my favorites into a folder where I want them - I just get that unuseable controll that's 100 pages long when I try it...

    Why does Microsoft insist on force-feeding their customers with changes none of them asked for, and practially nobody wanted?
