RVS4000 firmware updates don't work with Internet Explorer 8.0

I have 2 RVS4000 VPN routers. Neither would accept firmware updates via the admin browser interface using Internet Explorer 8.0. After lots of troubleshooting, I tried Chrome (Google) on 1 router and Mozilla Firefox on the other. Both updates were successful. The firmware rescue utility that you can download from the Cisco web site also works. It does the update without the browser interface, but installs a slightly older version of firmware than is availble for browser-based firmware updates. I hope this saves you time and frustration when you need to update your routers.
Rene Feitelson

Rene,
A thousand thanks for taking the time to post your result. You've made my day!
I have spent over 8 hours today trying to implement a firmware upgrade on my RVS4000, with zero success. I initially used Safari 5 (on a Win XP SP3 machine) in order to update IPS to v1.42, with no success. Switching to MS IE8 and the update worked fine - hence I stuck with IE8 for the firmware update. I can confirm your result - IE8 does not initiate a firmware update, nor does it provide any feedback whatsoever on its failure.
Using the Firefox v3.5.9 browser the RVS4000 v1.3.2.0 firmware update worked straight away without a glitch.
So, perhaps a general "Heads Up" to everyone - if you have any issues when trying to configure your Router, then try using another browser as the first step.
Many thanks again, Rene.

Oh, another issue that might help folks:
When the firmware update file "filename.img" is downloaded from the Cisco site Windows interprets it as a .zip file and associates the usual ZIP file icon to it. Cisco's documentation states "unpack the file and ......". This immediately leads one to believe that the firmware update file is contained in the ZIP file. This is not the case! It is NOT a ZIP file at all, but is the binary that the router requires.
If one tries to unzip the file WinZip throws up an error "ISO file incomplete" and doesn't unzip it.
So, ignore the ZIP file icon and just point the router firmware updater at the .img file, despite its ZIP icon.

Java 7 update 10 not working with Internet Explorer 8

Hi there,
I recently upgraded to Java 7 update 10 and ever since no Java applet loads in Internet Explorer 8 (works fine in Firefox 17.1).
I've tried uninstalling Java and reinstalling Java many times, makes no difference.
Can someone help me please?
Thanks
Ninko
P.S. I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium (all updated), in case it helps.

I agree - check to make sure IE itself hasn't disabled Java.
Since you're using Java 7.10, please also check the Security tab in the Java Control Panel which can be found in the Windows Control Panel.
While in the Java Control Panel, check also the Advanced tab and make sure Microsoft Internet Explorer is checked under 'Default Java for browsers'
Alternatively check this registry key: HKCU\Software\AppDataLow\Software\JavaSoft\DeploymentProperties
For this setting: deployment.webjava.enabled
Make sure its set to 'true' to enable java; if its 'false' it disables java.

New flash player 11 update doesn't work with internet explorer 8

I have Windows 7 and IE 8. This is a home desktop computer.
When the latest update of FlashPlayer 11.5.502.146 was automatically installed on Jan 9, IE8 stopped working. I can navigate to a site, but then it just freezes. I can not click any toolbar or other buttons or links--I can not even close IE--I have to use task manager. If I disable Flashplayer, IE works fine, but then of course no content can be displayed. If I go to a site and then enable Flashplayer, I can't click on anything again, so that doesn't work. HELP. Does the newest update not work with IE8?

I have a similar problem. I've Win XP SP3 with IE 8. For last few months I've noticed that Flash Player is not able to play flash audio/video on a webpage i.e., upon visiting a page the flash player starts loading but it does not finish - a circle keeps rotating - player does not manage to display 'Play' button. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Flash Player 11.5.502.146. Also, installed Flash Player 11.6.602.161 from above link. But, with same result.
Same behaviour is repeated in FireFox 18.0.1 with Flash Player 11.5.502.146. It seems that something else is not allowing flash player to play. I've latest Java 7 Upd 13, ZoneAlarm 11 and Avast 7.0.1474.
(Note: I've another PC with Win XP SP3, IE 8 and FireFox 18.0.1 and Flash Player 11.5.502.146 works well. It has Java 7 Upd 13. It has ZoneAlarm 11 and Windows Defender AV)
Can anyone help?

I also went into the safety tab and deselected

Chrome uses a different and separate plug-in.
There are things about IE you need to know, especially 11. Specifically:
"User-Agent Strings"
That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess they've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Why does my Web Handler work with Internet Explorer, but not with Firefox

I am trying to develop a web page that uses the Simile Timeline (http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/wiki/Timeline) with data from SQL Server.
In initial testing of my timeline I tested it with Example.xml, a static XML file in the correct format to be event data. I wrote the following in the appropriate place within mytimeline's Javascript: -
var WebHandler = "Example.xml"
tl.loadXML(WebHandler, function (xml, url) { eventSourceFamily.loadXML(xml, url) });
This worked fine with both Firefox and Internet Explorer. I then changed the assignment to
var WebHandler = "GDBTimeline.ashx?Type=Family&Userid=" + getControlValue("input", "hdnUser");
so that invoked a web handler that could look up the SQL database and return the XML that I wanted, and wrote this web handler.
This works perfectly with Internet Explorer, but with FireFox the timeline band is blank. Yet when I examine the http traffic with Fiddler2 (http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/) I see that with either browser there is a response from URL
/GDB_pages/GDBTimeline.ashx?Type=Family&Userid=robertb
that returns the XML that it is supposed to.
I have previously used web handlers with Firefox before, with no problems. The Fiddler results conclusively show that the web handler is invoked, and returns the appropriate XML, and this XML is identical to the XML from the static test with Example.xml.
Where do I start looking for answers? I don't even know if this is a Simile problem, a Firefox problem, or an ASP.NET problem.
Thank you, Robert.

Problem solved. The issue: Content Type was not correct.
Visual Studio creates the web handler with dummy code like this: -
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write("Hello World")
End Sub
I wrote a database query that set a string variable to the XML I wanted: -
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
Dim Outstring as string
' my logic to fill Outstring with XML
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write(Outstring)
End Sub
This works with Internet Explorer. However it's not strictly correct: to make it work with other browsers as well,
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
should be
context.Response.ContentType = "text/xml"
It now works with IE, FF, and Chrome, and presumably all others.

Working with internet explorer

I know mac no longer supports internet explorer. I need to access applications from my place of employment at home that apparently only work with internet explorer.
I can partially access the website using firefox, safari, netscape,and the latest internet explorer for macs (5.2), but can't do anything with it. The IT guy at my place of employment tried to help me configure the internet explorer, but says it's old & he couldn't do it. Am I out of luck?

Just a question: is your work computer a PC? If it is, I recommend biting the bullet and signing up for "Go to My PC" if you haven't already. I assume if you're a Mac user you probably have broadband internet at home and at work. If you use GTMPC you can operate your PC right from your home Mac, and process your stuff from home, save it on your work PC, and you're good to go! It's only $19.95 a month for unlimited usage; $14.95 a month if you sign up and pay for a whole year. It works great - it basically uses your browser at home to extend your home keyboard to your work PC. Your work PC does all the work, not your Mac - but you get to watch. It's as much fun as PC computing can be!

How Can I work with Internet Explorer? I have an application that runs in IDOCS and Firefox, Chrome or Safari are not compatible

I recently update from Leopard to Lion but I see that Internet Explorer is not working because PowerPc is not longer supported...I work for an Engineering Company that uses Idocs as document management and uses Internet Explorer for accessing and linking Docs by Default ,,,Chrome, Firefox and Safary don´t work with Idocs..
Please advice..

I believe you would need to install a copy of Windows using Boot Camp and then use IE in that OS. There is no current OSX compatibility with IE that I know of.

Cannot print due to error message--printer working with Internet Explorer--How do I correct?

Last week printer worked fine with Firefox.
This week a message comes back "an error occurred while printing".
Printer works fine with Internet Explorer.

To test how Firefox runs "uncustomized" on your system, could you do a two-minute experiment?
'''Create a new Firefox profile'''
A new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
firefox.exe -P
Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
You'll click the Create Profile button. I recommend using the default location suggested (i.e., just ignore the option to choose a different folder). Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
Can you print?
When returning to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the Delete Profile button. But... it's a bit too easy to accidentally delete your "real" profile, so I recommend resisting the temptation. If you do want to clean up later, I suggest making a backup of all your profiles first in case something were to go wrong.

IWeb Page Navigational Links not working with Internet Explorer 7

I'm hoping someone can help me out here? My wife created her 1st website using iWeb. I am testing the sites functionality before we publish it. All the pages and links work fine on Firefox and Safari for windows. However, the page navigational links are not working on Internet Explorer 7. All I see is a dot to the left side of where the page links should be. When I start the site in IE7 I get an Active X script warning and I am asked if I want to allow the script to run; to which I reply yes. After I allow the Active X script the dot to the left side of where the page links should be disappears, but the links do not appear.
Is there anyway to resolve this? Most of the members of her club have Windows based PCs and are using IE7.

Yes, Javascript is running on IE7 and other java script applets appear to be working with the exception of the Navbar script.
It would be great if my wife's friends used a "real" browser, unfortunately 70% of the people on the web use IE7, so this is a real concern if we can't get this to work. I'v seen other iWeb site on IE7 that seem to function fine, so I'm not sure what the issue is here.

Response.TransmitFile not working with Internet Explorer 11

My website works fine with FireFox, and it worked fine with Internet Explorer too up until a few weeks ago (at least). Now, with Internet Explorer 11 (running on Windows 8 Pro 64 bit), when I click the button to download the file (a Word document),
nothing happens. In FireFox, a dialog is presented asking the user to save or open the file.
What is going on??? I have been having nothing but problems with IE11. Extremely poor performance all around.

Youtube not running in firefox, but works with internet explorer

when i open you tube in Firefox, it does not run the videos. however the same runs good with internet explorer. a few weeks back the videos were running quite good with Firefox also.

Hi,
You can try to '''Clear Now''' the '''Cache''', '''Cookies''', and '''Site Preferences''' in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History Clear Recent History] as well as '''Delete all''' in the Windows '''Control Panel''' > '''Flash Player''' > '''Storage''' tab.
If you have security software (antivirus, firewall etc.) installed, you can try deleting all existing instances of Firefox and its related files in all the different configuration areas/modules of the security software. Instead create new allow/trusted rules for Firefox + its related processes. Even otherwise the security software may also ask again when Firefox is started and you can try to allow/trust at that time. Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firewalls this].
