Display window task bar on web page opened in kiosk mode.

I am using IE8 in Window 7.
I open a certain web page in kiosk mode (call IE browser with -k option, a full screen without window frame). How can the window task bar be displayed at the bottom of the web page while the web page is in kiosk mode?
Thank you for advice.

Hi,
If you are using kiosk mode for a public access terminal, then you use the default Guest user account and use GPO to limit their access to other applications that are installed at the machine level.
How the web browser opens links from other programs is set in Internet Options.
I don't think your EULA's cover Word or Outlook on public access computers.
Allowing the public to access the windows shell is asking for trouble.... putty and your networks mud.
Firstly you should update the machine with the latest Windows updates and IE11. And download the admx files and use GPEdit applied to the Guest account to lock down the machine for that user account.(including the shell)

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

When a web page opens a link in a new window, the new page/window is always blank and all i can do is click on the x in the top right corner to get rid of the page

everytime i click on a link on a webpage that is supposed to open in a new window, the new window is always just a blank white window/page

Is there a way for me to determine where on my desktop the new web pages open when I click on links?
Not sure if that can be done but you can press the Expose key which will show all open windows.

I have Firefox pinned to the Task bar in Windows 7. when I open firefox I get an extra firefox icon in my task bar while having firefox open. It used to show as being open on the icon that is pinned to the task bar

# Click the pinned icon to launch Firefox.
# Right-click the pinned icon and choose "Unpin this program from taskbar".
# Right-click the Firefox icon and choose "Pin this program to taskbar".

I have Firefox pinned to the Task bar in Windows 7. After upgrading to Firefox 9 when I open firefox I get an extra firefox icon in my task bar while having firefox open. It used to show as being open on the icon that is pinned to the task bar.

* Installed Firefox 9
* I am running Windows 7 64-bit
* I have Firefox pinned to the task bar.
* When Firefox opens, there is a new icon that opens up on the task bar. Normally, Firefox would open within the icon that is pinned to the task bar.
* When I close Firefox, the extra icon goes away.
* Firefox is acting like the icon that is pinned to the task bar is not even there.

Before attempting the steps below, I would highly suggest you visit the latest known issues for the current version, specifically FF 9 release notes.
See:
[[Latest Firefox issues]]
1. Unpin the old firefox icon
2. Go to c:\Program File (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\
3. Double click on "firefox.exe" (FF window & icon will appear in supertaskbar)
4. Pin this new icon by right clicking > Pin to Taskbar (Firefox Icon turns into whitebox)
5. Make sure that you see the hidden folders
[[windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Show-hidden-files]]
6. Go to C:\Users\%yourusername%\AppData\Local
7. Delete "IconCache.db"
8. Open the taskmanager
9. Kill explorer.exe by clicking on End Process
10. In the taskmanager, File -> New Task (Run...) --> write "explorer.exe" without the quotation mark, press ok

Duo monitor and windows task bar...

Hi, i have two monitors. And now here is my question/problem, when i watch videos or live streams(main monitor) i usually have another page for browsing open on my 2nd monitor and i stay on that page while watching live stream at the same time. However the windows task bar wont disappear and it remains and over-laps the bottom part of my main monitor. Is there any way to change this or perhaps theres no hope?

Hi,
if my understanding is correct your issue is more related to primary/secondary monitor setting in Windows. Please note that when in extended mode the taskbar will normally be only shown on the primary monitor.
The Windows taskbar will disappear when you use FF in fullscreen mode (F11) which you may find useful when streaming video from web.
Hope it helps

I can no longer have more than three web pages open at one time.

I used to be able to have many web pages open at once and go back and forth between them as I pleased. Now--only three. I have no idea why.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Is there a way to control where a web page opens on my desktop when I click on a link in my email (Mail)?

So while I'm reading my emails, I get a lot of Twitter notifications. I like to just click on the Twitter link & keep on reading mail until I get to the end. But sometimes the Twitter web page opens right over the top of my Mail page. It's not a big deal, but I get a lot of these, so over the course of time it's a big waste of time to keep moving the web pages over to keep reading my emails.

Hi,
I understand that when you click on Edit this task in the message bar in InfoPath 2010, nothing happens. Does this happen when you open the email which contains the ‘Edit this task’ link?
If so, you can try to check whether this key is in your regedit. If so, you can delete this key and have a test.:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}
Back up the regedit keys before making any changes. For more information about backup and restore the regedit, please refer to these sites:

Windows Task Bar Icon (Access 2013)

This is my first database I created from scratch in Access 2013, and I am not sure how to change my Windows Task Bar Icon use the Application Icon. Not a huge deal, but to keep consistency between my systems, it would be nice to resolve.
How does one get Access 2013 to use the Application Icon to show in the Windows Task Bar when the program is launched?

Hi Mark,
>> it wasn't a big issue, it is just by assigning an Icon in Access 2010, the application magically had that same icon on the task bar showing open programs.<<
Based on my test, the icon in Windows Task Bar will not change after I assign an icon for Access 2010. I tested in Access 2010 on Windows 7, here is the screenshot for your reference:

Hiding windows task bar

I am working on a custom TS operator interface written in CVI 5.5. I am trying to hide the windows task bar. I have used
SetPanelAttribute (panel, ATTR_SYSTEM_MENU_VISIBLE, 0);
and this works, except that when my modelsupport DLL puts a popup on the screen, the taskbar becomes visible again while the popup is present. How can I stop this?

Hi Byron,
I have tried to reproduce the problem you are describing and it seems to work fine for me. One thing I am somewhat confused by is that you say you used the SetPanelAttribute call to hide the "windows taskbar". I believe you are actually talking about the "system menu" that is accessed via the icon on the left side of a window's title bar, as the "windows task bar" is actually the floating menu bar displayed at the bottom of the Window's desktop and contains the infamous Start menu.
Anyhow, I have created an example TS 2.0.1 sequence file that calls a CVI dll which spawns a new thread and displays a panel that has the system menu hidden. If you run the sequence you will see that when the modelsupport.dll displays the modal UUT serial number dialo
g and pass/fail banner dialogs, it does not change the visibility of the system menu displayed by the CVI dll UI. (the reason I create new threads to display the dialog is so that the call to the dll does not wait on RunUserInterface to complete and returns execution to the sequence file immediately).
**Note: The dll project was created in CVI 6.0, and the sequence file in TS 2.0.1, please state what versions of CVI and TS you are using if you want help with a specific version. You do not need TS 2.0.1 to use the dll I created, just simply call the lone function in the dll in a sequence file with the CVI adapter and run the file with Test UUTs in whatever version of TS you have. Since the dll was created in CVI 6.0 you may need to install the CVI 6.0 RTE, which is available on ni.com under the downloads section, and it is fully compatible with previous versions of CVI.
So, just give this a shot to see if you can discern anything from it.

HAVE ONE WEB PAGE OPEN AND SUDDENLY ANOTHER WEB PAGE OPENS

I can have one web page open and suddenly another web page will pop up. Why? It doesn't happen all the time. Like I said suddenly.

Another thing you can try doing is scanning for Malware:
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]
Download and Run TDSSKiller [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363]
Download and Install Microsoft Security Essentials [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials] (not an official endorsement, but I personally recommend MSE as an awesome permanent anti-virus)
Double check for all Windows Updates.
What is the website that opens up? Is it always the same, always different, one of a few, etc?

Multiple web-pages open each time I log onto Safari.

Hi, I have mac os x lion and whenever I log onto Safari multiple web-pages open from last time Safari was used. Does anyone know how can I change this so it only opens one web-page whenever I log on.?

This behavior is new in Lion.
You have a few choices.
Close all windows/tabs before quitting Safari.
Or (what is essentially the same thing):
When quitting Safari, hold the option key down.
Or:
When launching Safari from the dock, hold the shift key down.
Or, to disable this behavior permanently for all applications, there is a checkbox in System Preferences, General.

Click URL to open in IE while another web page has been opened in kiosk mode.

I am using IE8 in Window 7.
I opened a certain web page in kiosk mode (call IE browser with -k option, a full screen without window frame). While this page remained opened, I pressed ‘Window key + D’ to return to desktop. After that I went to Microsoft Outlook, opened
a mail and clicked a URL in the mail. The URL was opened in kiosk mode which was not I expected. I expected to have this URL opened in normal IE browser mode.
I tried the same action, while a web page was opened in kiosk mode and it remained opened, I returned to desktop and opened a URL within a Word document or Excel document. The URL was opened in normal IE browser mode. It appeared that there was
something special with Outlook.
How can I fix this problem? While a web page was opened in kiosk mode and it remains opened, I return to desktop and click a URL anywhere no matter in Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel or other applications, I want to have this URL opened in normal IE browser
mode.
Thank you for your advice!

In getURL you had a method parameter _self, look URLRequest
definition in Flash help to see if it receives a similar parameter.
_self is for link to open in same browser window, _blank is used
for a new window.

Help!!! How to make quicktime plugin do not display on top of the web page?

Any one knows how to make quicktime plugin do not display on top of the web page??? I've tried to change the zIndex property using javascript, but it doesn't work.

Anyone can helps me? Thanks in advance!!!

Check the docs. Trent is usually very thorough in his
