Does the portal utilizes Internet Explorer's ADODB.Stream object?

Question

Does the portal utilizes Internet Explorer's ADODB.Stream object? We're attempting to understand the impact associated with disabling the ADODB.Stream object within Internet Explorer as recommended by Microsoft - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=870669. We have 4.5 in production, and will be migrating to 5.0 in the fall (with full product suite).

Hi
1. yes , please check for host entries
2. please check with your network team and ask them about whether Port has been opened or firewall or not.
3. i was just asking about URL so that i can tell you exact Portal Port. anyways it might be
5<instance number>00 or if in any case if you are using Webdispatcher then it might be 8<instance number of webdispatcher>0 .
9 you can get the root cause of issue with Telneting the port of your Portal from your machine
Goto Command prompt of your machine
and put following command
telnet <ip of portal instance> <port of your portal>
Port will be like
http://portal url:port/irj/portal.
and please also try with IP in IE
http://IP:Port/irj/portal.
if you are able to get it with IP then there is a issue with your Own computer's Host entries
they are at
c:\windows\system32\etc\drivers\hosts
