Weird problem with Outlook, WebBrowser control and Windows Server 2003

I have an applaction, that is an addin for Outlook. It opens a form with a
WebBrowser control wich then shows a page from a Webserver. It works fine,
but when I installed it on Windows Server 2003 the page didn't get shown in
the WebBrowser control.

I have another application wich uses the same form, but is a standalone
Winform-Application. This works on both machines (my development PC with
Vista and the Windows Server 2003.

Does anyone have an idea, what this cuold be, or any hint where to search
further?

Thanks
Christof

Nordiek,

This probably has to do with the fact that internet explorer is locked
down on Windows Server 2003 and does not show pages which are not in the
trusted sites without confirmation. The WebBrowser control is based on IE,
and I wouldn't dobut that this is the reason.

If you make your site a trusted site, does it work?

Thanks for answering.

The site is trusted. Actually it is the machine itself. Also this wouldn't
declare, why it does work, if the application isn't an Outlook-AddIn.

May also ve caused by the Outlook-Version. The system where it runs, has
Outlook 2003, the other Outlook 2007.

Hello All, I have been researching newsgroups and knowledgebase all morning and not found a solution that would solve the problem I have. I am having an ASP or ASPX web page that implement a counter functionality and read/insert some data in a MS Access database on that Windows 2003 server. The weird part is, as long as the web page is very short in size, I can hit the refresh button and Internet Explorer will reload the page and display...

For some reason, when I click the X to close my MDI parent form, the action appears to be re-directed to one of the MDI child forms, and the parent remains open. I am then unable to close the application. What should happen, is that the main MDI form should close, taking the child forms with it. There is code to loop through the child forms, remove the controls on each of them, and then close the form, but this code should execute only...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
