Friend having trouble logging in

Post by DarkNinja75 » Sun Jul 11, 2004 1:10 am

Since he's unable to log on to the Org, I'm posting this for him.

"Okay, to be more specific, when I go to type in my screenname (Orion/Osiris) I click in the box and hold down shift to capitalize the O. Then I get a weird bow that says

Title Area: Microsoft Visual C++ Debug Library

Message Area (with big red X-ed out box) :

"Debug Assertion Failed!

Program: C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET\ EXPLORER\IEXPLORE.EXE
File:dbgedel.cpp
Line: 47

Expression:_BLOCK_TYPE_IS_VALID(pHead->nBlockUse)

For information on how your program can cause an assertion failure, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts.

(Press Retry to debug the application)"

Then it gives me three choices, Abort, Retry, or Ignore."

Anyone know what's up?

His IE is f---ed up. I bet he'll be able to log in on other people's machines fine.

Maybe clearing the stored usernames/passwords would help? Or switching to Mozilla or Firefox?

your friend might have a virus or spyware on his computer that is forcing IE to crash, the same thing happens to my friends IE after being infested with spyware. Try using a different browser. My friend uses MSN explorer right now, and works fine, but you have a bunch of choices to choose from for a browser. Good Luck.
