Hi, I have a colleague who cannot open explorer view in SharePoint 2007 team or mysites, he's got IE8 8.0.6001 XP SP3. We have tried re starting webclient, placing the mysite url in his IE trusted zone and internet zone. I have been unable to locate the protected mode check box in IE8 highlighted in other forums, it appears in my IE8 but not his. IE displayed the following error message Webpage error details User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; MS-RTC LM 8; InfoPath.3) Timestamp: Thu, 23 Dec 2010 14:18:31 UTC Message: Element not found. Line: 1945 Char: 4 Code: 0 URI: http://mysite/_layouts/1033/init.js?rev=qX%2BG3yl4pldKy9KbPLXf9w%3D%3D Any ideas? Many thanks in advance. lsvsco
