Default strange error bar when accessing my site - 10-24-2007 , 02:33 PM






Hi,

my name is juan, I design the site www.tobesecurity.com
when someone navigates to the site. internet explorer prompts that the
site wants to run ietag.dll ... I tried to search for this dll in the
source code of the page so I can delete it but I didnt found it.
I want to remove this dll stuff. how can I do it ? or what is it?

thanks a lot!!

Juan

You designed that site in MS Office, hence the 140 validation errors.
Start over with Notepad and I'm sure all your woes will soon be gone.

(I can only marvel that MS goes to such lengths to make their products
hacker heavens.)

The HTML was generated by MS Word v11 and later modified by Dreamweaver.
All of the horrid code created by Word is still there, plus extra crud
added by DW, including a MS IE proprietary method for defining special
fonts. I suspect the latter is where the request for the DLL arises.
De-crufting a Word generated site is a messy business. It's worth it
since the size will be about 1/2 its current one, and work mostly the same
in all browsers without opening a giant security hole.

Probably more like 1/10 its current size.
