[WoW] Internet Explorer script error upon starting WoW

[Ultima]

Since yesterday I have been receiving this error when I run World of Warcraft. I don't use IE, so I have not bad any changes, nor have I downloaded anything recently.

DxD?

Wow launcer uses IE to retrieve patch info etc when launched... Dunno whats causing that error. You want to let that script run tho.

[gathriel]

try to change your default browser to be Opera, Firefox or any other browser. I've never seen such error tho.

Default browser is Chrome.

is your computers clock / calendar correct, i seen that mess with wowlauncher and other things specifically when the battery dies and it reverts back several years

Open IE > Click tools > Internet options > Connections > Lan settings > Make sure all the boxes are unchecked.

Also under advanced see if you have script debugging on under browsing

I've had something like this happen and if i remember correctly it was because i had proxy settings on under Lan settings.

Edit: also make IE your default browser even if you don't use it to see if that helps. <---- forget about this part

Default browser won't matter.. Still uses IE

I just wanted to tell you that I have the same problem. It happened yesterday as I installed new fonts to WoW. Ever since this happened, my loading screen won't complete. I usually have to try logging in 3-4 times to succeed.
I tried what you said, Core, but I'm getting another script message now.
Same as above, only:

Line: 1

Excuse all the space, but I'm not allowed to post links yet

Have you tried to update Internet Explorer? What version of IE are you using?

[Telys]

I'm using version 8. I'll try updating it, thanks!

Probably just as well because thats an advertisement link.

Anyway - looks like something is broken with the script used to fetch advertisements. Don't think theres a whole lot you can do about it; start wow.exe directly in the meantime.

Blizzard or Google (owner of Doubleclick) should get around to fixing the above problem eventually.
