"Do you want to debug this webpage?"

Post by jmt356 »

I am very frequently getting this message while I am using Skype:
“Do you want to debug this webpage?
“This webpage contains errors that might prevent it from displaying or working correctly. If you are not testing this webpage, click no.”

What is most strange is that one would expect this to be an IE error message, but I just restarted my computer and it popped up while I had Skype active, before I even opened up IE or any other browser.

Does this sound like a virus?
Regards,

JMT

Skype uses Internet Explorer "under the hood", so the error can occur if you don't have any browser open.
Try the following:
- Open Internet Explorer.
- Select Tools | Internet Options...
- Activate the Advanced tab.
- Scroll down to the Browsing section.
- Make sure that both "Disable script debugging" check boxes are ticked.
- Make sure that the "Display a notification about every script error" check box is clear.
- Click OK.
