Re: NIS Intrusion Protection crashing IE8

I spent the better part of my evening trying to determine why my IE8 would not even load. After disabling all of the add-ons through a command line execution, I deduced the same offender - intrustion protection. Before this, I was stressed since my family uses these computers for online schooling, and I HAD to get this working. Interesting side, my IE9 RC browser on my other computer works just fine.

Tell me, why does the file date still say the same, 11/30/2010, if it changed today?

While I understand the testing of this stuff is tough, I'd certainly try to not get burned 2x by what appears to be the same issue that occurred last year.

Running Live Update corrected the problem. Thanks for the quick resolution.

Hi everyone,

 

If you're experiencing this issue, I recommend that you run LiveUpdate now to get the updated IPS definitions. This should resolve the problem for you. Please let us know if this fixes the problem for you. Thanks!


Yes!  That fixed it for me.  Thanks for the very fast response.  Still, one wonders why this wasn't tested before an update to SIP was put out.
