Fixing Stubborn Security Issues in Vista – Part 1

I’ve had some new errors pop-up for me the past couple of days on my mother-in-law’s computer. She’s got a Sony VAIO desktop and is running Windows Vista.

She said that anytime she’d try to print something from the Internet, the Print Preview would display the HTML source for the page instead of the web page you would expect to see.

I’ll apologize in advance because I didn’t think about grabbing some screen shots of error messages and settings to prepare for this post.

After doing a few searches for the problem and what the apparent fix was we ended up trying a couple of different things. A couple of the options involved re-registering some DLL’s but that didn’t work, in fact got an error message when I tried.

The other solution was to tell Internet Explorer to reset its settings to all the defaults. We tried that and it fixed our problem. I thought everything was going to be okay.
