Internet options on window XP

[Odys]

<p>I cannot connect under xp, the laucher is the same than on my on my other pc with a single difference L it's wirtten plugin 4.33. Fire wall is off but there is this cryptical internet setting that is particular to window (i m a unix user).</p><p>This setting seem to allow explorer to do things or not.</p><p>It seems that you decided to base your launcher on web protocol used via explorer (terrible mistake since using anything designed by microsoft lead to troubles).</p><p>Can you tell me which of those cryptic options have to be enabled ?</p><p>Oups .... may be i found the issue ... possibly i destroyed explorer on my pc since anyone with a bit of sense uses firefox or chrome. I will check.</p><p>oups i checked the piece of crap is there.</p>

<p>I did copy my eq2 folder from my macbook (bootcamp +xp) onto a usb hard disk. I tried the launcher from the second pc, it does not connect. But eq2.exe works perfectly.</p><p>I would like to know how to fix the problem.</p><p>Note that the problem would not exist with proper design choice : why using explorer and horrible window fuzzy/risky undefined protocols to patch your game ?</p><p>A self contained patcher , using p2p and signed filesum would have been much better.</p>

<p>Apparently there is not anymore in the support team ?</p><p>Why on earth your silly patcher refuse to work on my Window Xp PC that has no firewall ?</p>

<p>Could you include any errors you might be receiving?  Is it just "Unable to connect"?  Any numbered error?</p><p>Here's some instructions I just posted in another thread about a possible internet option setting.  Also, our launchpad's use firefox libraries, albeit older ones.</p><p><span style="color: #cae0e6; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px;">Click Start > Control Panel > Internet Options > Advanced Tab > Scroll through the settings to the security section > UNCheck the option that reads "Do Not Save Encrypted Pages to Disk" and click Apply/OK.</span></p>
