When Content Advisor is enabled, Internet Explorer 6 may repeatedly send GET requests to the root of a Web site
Consider the following scenario:
- You are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 6. Content Advisor is enabled.
- You visit a Web site that contains scripts, such as javascript:false scripts.
In this scenario, Internet Explorer may send a GET request to the root of this Web site every time that a script runs on this site.
This issue occurs if Internet Explorer does not associate the scripts on a particular Web site with any existing Content Advisor rules. In this situation, Internet Explorer sends a GET request to the root of the Web site to locate the configuration file for the rule.
To work around this issue, disable Content Advisor. To do this, follow these steps:
- Click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
- Click the Content tab, and then click Disable in the Content Advisor area.
- In the Password box, type the supervisor password, and then click OK two times.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
