Help Please!

Post by Jazzy »

My computer is running Windows XP. This morning when I logged on I got this message: The main .idx for AOL database file is damaged. Please insert AOL disc for recovery. I was running AOL 9.1.

I received an new upgrade disc for AOL 9.5. I installed this and everything seemed okay at first. NOW everytime I try to post I get this message: A runtime error has occured. Do you wish to debug? Each message has a different error line number in it.

Can anyone help me find out why this is happening? Needless to say, it's driving me nuts!

Thank you in advance!

Here, AOL has various suggestions which all lead to the same result of stopping the message from recurring.

Spot has pointed you in the right direction it is a setting in your browser for script debugging just turn off debugging by checking the boxes as show in the example problem should be solved. If your running IE6, or IE7 it may be in a different area just look for the "script debugging disable".
