[Release] Internet Explorer 7 English w/Updates (v2.0.4a)

[jessjcee]

I have been getting a popup error when ever i close IE7 with multiple tabs still open. Any idea's please?

Code: Select all

IEXPLORE.EXE - Application Error : The instruction at "0x66869bc7" referenced memory at "0x00000034". The memory could not be "read".

This error is not just related to my computer, it is happening on all pc's i have installed the slipstreamed cd on.

FYI : i have Windows XP SP2, with RVMUPDATEPACK2.1.10, NR_IE7EN_ADDON_1.0.5B_ALT and WMP11_TWEAKEDADDON installed using RVM_Integrator_1.4.3.

[RaGhul]

No issues for me whatsoever.

I used Xable's Light Update Pack, disabled SFC with nlite, live install (not VMware.)

I'm not sure where to look for that error log, but I don't really care.
As far as I'm concerned, it's a 'non-issue'.

How's this for a description:

IE7 Regular Addon
Totally safe. However, this addon replaces a few IE7 files at OOBE.

IE7 Preferred Addon
This addon will integrate all IE7 files directly to your Windows source w/o OOBE.

*Note:
The preferred addon should be fine, particularly if you prefer to overwrite files and disable SFC with nlite. This addon produces 'setuperr.log' messages. So far, they seem negligible. We're working on it!

If you're adventurous, go with the Preferred Addon. Otherwise, play it safe and go with the Normal Addon.

This error is not just related to my computer, it is happening on all pc's i have installed the slipstreamed cd on.

I sometimes get error messages lile that when i close some of my apps. I had a computer giving errors like that. After formatting it, i didnt get messages again. Maybe related with hardware maybe not.
But as said in the error, its related with memory not the program. I dont have any info about how to workaround or fix that. Will be glad if sb can share info about these kind of errors.

Edit: Sorry RaGhul. Forgot ur post. That description clears up everything IMO. I'll update first post with it. Thanks for your time and participation

[Mitsuko Aninikkou]

I'd shy away from calling either addon 'Preferred', but what about 'Direct'? Referring to the direct integration, of course.

[RaGhul]

Point taken, Mitsuko.

However, for most of us (I think) the Alternative addon better represents what we are trying to achieve. Overwriting all of the files completely with Integrator most likely should be cleaner. The most popular addons here at RyanVM (for example, boooggy's WMP11, Ryan's Update Pack ...and now, DmX's IE7) are all integrated directly to the source. This makes XP installation faster, and also reduces the clutter on the hard drive. No fuss, no muss. IMO, I think Preferred describes this best.

Really, I was just trying to help DmX clean up the thread a little... especially the first post.

But, hey, if you can think of a better name, by all means, let's hear it!!

@DmX
Glad ya liked it!!

[just_laze]

But, hey, if you can think of a better name, by all means, let's hear it!!

He already did - Direct.

laze.

[MrNxDmX]

Thanks for sharing your ideas my friends. I changed first post, in order to make clearer explanations about addons. I used RaGhul's post, than modified it a bit.
I hope its better to understand the difference now.

[MrNxDmX]

Addons are updated to 105c in order to fix the tweaks issue described here. Thanks for informing BikinDutchman.

Here is the old changelog in case sb needs:

Changelog:
2007-05-21: v105b-->Found a workaround for RVM Integrator cat issue described here. Added KB928090-corpol.dll to the pack.
2007-05-19: v105a-->Fixed corpol.dll being un-signed issue. Added extra addon for updated corpol.dll.
2007-05-14: v105-->Fixed restart prompt at first logon. No restart is needed anymore. Added KB931768 (Replaces KB928090 & KB929726). Added MU ActiveX entry posted here.

I tested only alternative v105c addon in vmware with some ie7 tweaks like search providers, and all tweaks were added at first user logon.
Normal addon should work fine.

[RaGhul]

@DmX

Glad I could help. First post looks MUCH better! Easier to read!!

Just one thing to note. The following line should prolly be BOLD or something:

If you're adventurous, go with the Alternative Addon. Otherwise, play it safe and go with the normal Addon.

Since this really kinda 'sums it all up' for inexperienced users, I think.

[neph]

Hi,

Only change I've made to my addons is this IE one I updated to the current build from the previous 1.
Explorer startsup downloads +-10 things and when it get to last 1 it hangs CPU goes to 100% and it just sits there. Formatted and reinstalled twice. In the address bar is http://runonce.msn.com/runonce2.aspx

No other changes make to may addons or drivers... since i use firefox for most it doesn't bother me that mush however now Counter-strike Source doen't work
Game loads I join server/creat server asa i get that page page where 1 clicks on ok and then chooses sides...css hangs +-5 sec and bombs back to dekstop.
Can't for the life of me think why IE would cause this. I reinsatalled with previous XP build same addons old IE addon... everything works inc Counter-strike

I R confused

[neph]

Reload with alternative IE7 addon.
IE now works AND Counter-strike source loads
Still confused....

[Mitsuko Aninikkou]

I'm sure MrNxDmX would like to know which version of the addon you were previously using so he can figure out what might've changed to cause your problem.

[orcoxp]

Regular addon worked awesome for me...THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[just_laze]

Hello,

I remember this being mentioned on a couple of occasions and wanted to say... I too have received the "memory cannot be read" error when closing IE7.

This, on a system that runs Memtest86+ for 12 hours without errors.

Thanks.

laze.

First thing to try is to turn off DEP completely.

[master811]

I have experienced on multiple occasions on 2 different computers, Windows File Protection boxes appearing randomly, when the install has been slipstreamed with the alternative IE addon.

I don't know if its the IE addon that is causing it, although only have the WMP11 and full ryanVM update so suspect that it is. Is this a known issue at all, and could it be cos of using the alternative version. I don't get any issues slipstreaming or during install, just during normal use (and occurs randomly so don't know what's causing it).

It doesn't happen often so haven't bothered reinstalling with the normal IE addon, but if SFC is on, could the alternative be doing this?

[RaGhul]

I have experienced on multiple occasions on 2 different computers, Windows File Protection boxes appearing randomly, when the install has been slipstreamed with the alternative IE addon.

I think this just confirms why those of us who disable SFC with nlite have no problems. And it WOULD make sense that IE7 would cause problems with protected system files, especially with Internet Explorer's files.

Hey, it's just a hunch, but if I were you DmX, I'd start there to look for the problem.

(Btw, didn't mention this before, I think. I'm using the 'Alternative' Addon.)

I think the first thing I'll try is disabling it for Internet Explorer alone rather than system wide.

Thanks for the suggestion though, I didn't know the error was related to DEP.

It is only sometimes related to DEP, sometimes it's a flaky program or driver and sometimes it's corrupt files. Only God knows what else. But DEP is an easy place to look first.

[ENU_user]

the User Agent String needs to be changed to suit IE6 ,till sites will update their code
look @ bottom of page for anymore updates

[5eraph]

the User Agent String needs to be changed...

Umm... no. Read more carefully. The solution is a workaround for problematic sites, and it's now seven months old. What you suggest will force all sites to view the browser as IE6, not just the bad ones.

If anyone needs the workaround then they should use Microsoft's installer which installs a utility to change the string on demand. The string should not be set to IE6 full time. Otherwise, sites written to take advantage of the new features of IE7 will not work correctly.

[DigeratiPrime]

using NR_IE7en_Addon_1.0.5c_alt.7z on a new install source works great
btw thanks for cleaning up the first post, it's much less confusing now.

[IGIdeus]

Hi,
NR_IE7en_Addon_1.0.5c_alt.7z doesn't work properly for me. It applay tweaks for the first user - Administrator. But when I manually create next user, he never receives those tweaks.

It doesn't metter if this is normal or admin user.

This is intentional.

For some reason, the 'collective' decided it would be a good idea to apply the tweaks to the first account only and not any accounts created there after.

The workaround is to place your tweaks in a registry file and apply them at T13 (cmdlines.txt). This way, your tweaks will always be applied for each newly created account (as the registry entries will be stored in the default user tree of the registry that's referenced when creating a new user).

laze.

[IGIdeus]

This is intentional.

Hi,

If this is intentional, so it's OK.
I must move my tweaks to new addon once again.

Best regards
IGIdeus

Does this mean that your problem is solved?

If you're hacking syssetup.dll or windows setup files, its normal that you can get some errors like memory cannot be read. As I've written before, i used to get this error with some other programs too. But they're all gone after formatting the computer. And i have no idea about the reasons of those errors. Sorry for that.

I have experienced on multiple occasions on 2 different computers, Windows File Protection boxes appearing randomly, when the install has been slipstreamed with the alternative IE addon.

I suggest you without the ie7 addon and check if same thing occurs or not. And make sure you dont patch ur system files with nlite first.

As just_laze mentioned, it was the way i modify the addons. Not all of us want to see the tweaks in all users. If you want to see your tweaks in all users, you need to edit another inf file, xIE7en.inf. Change these lines

; This runs after first desktop loads... (for all users)
[AfterUserStart]
;AddReg=RenameOp2.AddReg,UserTweaks.AddReg
;DelReg=IE7.DelReg,HKU.DelReg,UpPck.DelReg

to this

; This runs after first desktop loads... (for all users)
[AfterUserStart]
AddReg=UserTweaks.AddReg

And copy&paste your tweaks under "[UserTweaks.AddReg]" in xIE7en.inf file. (Its at the end of the inf file.)

THanks for the addon ENU_user.I'll try it.
For a week, i'm working in a supermarket here. I cant reach to internet as before. Also, we closed the internet connection at home. I wont be able to reply your questions as before. Also it will take time to update the addons.
Cheers to all

FYI, I'm having issues with some forms in IE7 using NR_IE7en_Addon_1.0.5c. Luckily, I have some demo sites so you can see for yourself. Not using this pack and installing IE7 after install did not result in issues.

Example 1: http://marieclaire.mvm.com/index.html . Click on "Personalize". This form does not load right. It loads fine in Firefox or using IE7 not installed via this Pack.

Example 2: http://www.mycokerewards.com Click register now. Not exactly sure about this as the forms appeared to work fine when I tested them.

Both of these were reported to me by my wife; the 1st one I confirmed it did not work for me, but 2nd one I couldn't necessarily confirm.

The bad thing is I used this image to install my mother-in-law's new computer as well, so she has a bad IE7 install too. I re-installed the machine that was messing up here, so I'm afraid I can't test anymore here. Hopefully there is a quick fix so I won't have to spend anymore time and the in-laws reinstalling!

Thanks for the pack and I hope you have time to look at these issues.

thoses 2 site seem to run flash.maybe thats the problem.

[moataz]

Excuse me, But what this abbreviation mean:

IE7 Alternative Addon:
This addon will integrate all IE7 files directly to your Windows source w/o OOBE.

[moataz]

I was thinking of that, but want to confirm

Thanks for fast reply mr_smartepants.. i like that.

[moataz]

After integrating IE7 addon with nLite...
I have noticed that the special icon of "%WinDir%\Offline Web Pages" folder is missing.

Anyone has noticed that?

Please confirm with Yes or No.

[ENU_user]

can you check the "mail" link on the start menu , thats if you have one this link will open internet options ..?

[moataz]

What do you mean ENU_user?

Please confirm this issue with Yes or No

[ENU_user]

moataz, on my virtual setup : the folder is present without the special icon tho

now i meant the E-mail link on start menu ..

nothing critical tho this addon will need a few more reg entries and it ready for launch

[moataz]

So it could be a common minor problem...

Cause it happens when i integrate IE7.exe too..

[MrNxDmX]

bubbanc: Sorry i cant confirm your issues. Both working fine here, using normal addon. As bober101 said, that may be about flash, not internet explorer.

moataz, using normal addon, i cant confirm your issue. The icon of "%WinDir%\Offline Web Pages" folder is shown here. Also, e-mail icon in start menu is ok too.
I think that can be a bug of direct integration, i mean alternative addon.

Thanks for checking. I will build a new image once the June RVM update is out and we'll see what happens.

Thanks,
Brian

[ENU_user]

their aren't bugs if it works normally
adding reg entries can add customization in the overall
check http://support.microsoft.com/kb/297878

for example see comments on LITVIEW.EXE. the alt addon is more out of the cd so new IE7 as ALT isnt fully treated or customized as the cd one or like IE files updated from an updatepack aka IE6
so again these are only loose ends that can be customized to what ever you like ..
CDwise, ALT addon is treated more like third party browser with IE6 removed

[moataz]

Another Confirmationabout "Offline Web Pages" special icon

I find very strange moment! I integrate RVM addon 2.1.10 and IE7 1.0.5 After installing software? i try run WebResearch ( www.macropool.com ) and it crashed!!!! On other side this program nice worked on system with installed ( not intagrated ) IE7. I hope thay MrNxDmX help me resolve this problem!!!

[pawan]

Ryan released the update pack, any update on IE7 pack soon?

[MrNxDmX]

I'll work on this today. Yesterday i was busy with turkish update pack.

[pawan]

Thanks

[MrNxDmX]

Both addons are updated to 106.

Tested webresearch_pro 2,7 in vmware, with latest normal ie7 addon and rvm update pack 2.1.11. Works ok for me.

[ricktendo64]

Tested alt with 2.1.11 and all went well

[pawan]

Thanks MrNxDmX, tested with MVPC as well as clean install everything is just fine.

Here are a couple of registry entries that you are missing:

Code: Select all

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_RESPECT_ZONEMAP_FOR_MAPPED_DRIVES_KB929798]
"*"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_IGNORE_LEADING_FILE_SEPARATOR_IN_URI_KB933105]
"IExplore.exe"=dword:00000001

Explanation: Two Microsoft hotfixes, KB929798 and KB933105, are a bit unusual in that they require not only an updated file, but also these two registry entries to be added (check the KB articles for details: "After you apply the hotfix, you must modify registry settings to enable the hotfix."). Since you are using the QFE branch, the updated file for these hotfixes is already "included" by you having the latest version, but your add-on does not seem to have the corresponding registry entries. The fix for KB929798 is especially important, because there are a number of people, especially in a corporate environment, who use FQDNs for networking.

Hello,

When I click "Change user picture" in "User Accounts" the process mshta.exe uses 100% CPU and my system hangs for roughly 12 seconds before the next screen appears.

Can anyone else duplicate this? It happens on machines with varying configurations.

Thanks.

laze.
