When loading certain webpages I am getting "runtime error has occurred. Do you wish to debug? Line:xxx" Error: Expected ';' or Error: undetermined string constant or etc....
Is this a problem with IE or Java Script? how do I fix this? please help! :tazz:

In IE> Tools> Internet Options>Advanced> tick "disable script debugging IE" and "disable script debugging other". Also untick "display a notification of every script error".

That ought to do it!

Thanks! I tried what you suggested but there is only "disable script debugging" no "disable script debugging IE or Other"
but now I'm getting this pop up instead

Follow the steps as previously suggested by Czarina; but this time disable the "Display a Notification about script error"

Just wondering do you have the latest version of IE.
Open IE. Click Help -> About; check if you have the latest version i.e., IE6 Sp2
