Sometimes the most brilliant solutions are the simplest ones. I will have to remeber this one.

The setting in the INI that is causing this is the following. [RestrictedSave] ... DisableFileDownload=True ... This setting causes PWB to set the Internet Options to disable downloads. You can reset it by opening the Internet Options applet in the control panel. On the security tab, click on the in...

Because the environment variables are session specific you can not use a batch file to set the variable and then run PWB. The variable would only be set for the command box and PWB would not see the variable. You can set the variables system wide, or per user via the computer properties. But this wi...

Start with a clean (new) INI file from the distribution and see if that works. Then work from there.

We are no longer developing PWB v1, maybe it is time to give PWB v2 a test drive.

You can get a 30 day temporary license be emailing Michelle@TeamSoftwareSolutions.com and requesting one.

Try turning off the filters.

[Security]
...
NoAccess=False
...
OnlyAccess=False
...

Is the JavaScript opening pop-up windows? Make sure you do not have po-up windows disabled.

--Scott

Add "+JavaScript" to your URL filter file. Make sure you do not have pop-up windows disabled. You need to have the following settings in the INI to allow pop ups. [Browser] ... DisableNewWindow=False ... [SecondWindow] ... LimitCount= OpenInParentWindow=False DisableUnrequested=False ... -...

If you are using the only access filter:

[Security]
...
OnlyAccess=True
...

You should have JavaScript in your only access filter file.

If you are using the no access filter:

[Security]
...
NoAccess=True
...

You should not have JavaScript in your no access filter file.

In order to just copy the EXE over the old EXE when changing versions, for example v2.03 to v2.04, you will need to disable the INI file checking in the INI file. If you are upgrading from v2.04 revision x to another revision, the INI file was not changed so you will benefit from the bug fixes and y...

Make sure you are using at least PWB v2.04. PWB v2.04 checks all the drives before requesting a disk instead of just the first drive listed.

--Scott

If you are already running PWB v2.04, download the upgrade and copy the EXE over the old EXE. The INI file was not changed between revisions.

We have tried to keep PWB v1 and PWB v2 close in terms of usage, but under the hood PWB v2 is much faster and more efficient. You can use PWB v1, but we are confident if you try PWB v2, you will choose it over PWB v1. All new enhancements to PWB will only be done on PWB v2, PWB v1 is no longer being...

Do you have javascript in your allowed URLs?

--Scott

Not directly. PWB uses the IE HTML rendering engine, and thus uses the IP that IE uses. So in theory if you can change the IP IE uses then you can change the IP PWB uses.

What operating system are you using?

To really secure Windows I would not recommend using Windows 95/98/ME.

If you are using Windows NT/2K/XP, then you can use Windows policies to disable Task manager from the Ctrl-Alt-Del dialog.
