I am running vista Business and am unable to print from any web page using IE7. The problem does not exist in Firefox or with any other application - Office 2007, Acrobat, etc. I am told that turning off 'protected mode' would solve the problem.

HOTFIX only available via Microsoft Customer Service. Customer Service no longer has HOTFIX.

HI i've developed a simple printer driver that doesn't communicate with a physical printer but instead creates a PDF or TIF file for every page.

Vista Ultimate. IE7. Occasionally, IE gets into this mode where it won't print anything. The printer is fine ( other apps print , including driver test page ). Restart doesn't necessarily help. What could be going on ?

I find it dishearting that Microsoft failed to provide home users with the ability to send/receive a fax. A fax capability has been a standard feature in just about every Microsoft OS I can remember. As a home users, I don't need a fax on a daily basis. I might use it once a month or once every couple of months, but when I need it, I expect it to be there. Microsoft, you failed as far as...
