Title: Site loading issue Post by: Lovelee on May 28, 2009, 10:01:16 am Ive been a member of mylotto since it began. Originally I used IE 7 to connect - then as I do I got bored - and uploaded Firefox -- all was fine -- then I change again to IE7 and mylotto will let me sign in - but when I go to purchase the ticket it tells me I am not in NZ and cannot go any further.
So I have to bring up FF and I can do everything there. I decided to update IE7 to 8 -- thining that might sort it out - but NO. So I emailed mylotto - they replied saying I would have to contact microsoft NZ -- this morning I have spent ages going through their site (contact us) clicking through page after page of 'it is this' type questions - and then had to do a google search for an 0800 number. I rang them -- after giving all the details -- then going my computer/proprties and giving him the service pack number (3) and the number beneath that -- he says -- you have a configuration problem that will have to be sorted by a technician and it will cost $75 for starters -- this elicited a yelp from me -- i asked if I had to pay for the dudes I was talking to ;D and hung up. What can I do to correct this??

I know for a fact that mylotto know about this issue and have done for sometime - I'm surprised they put you through to Microsoft. Microsoft also should know about this issue - it's mentioned a lot on the developers forums. Don't waste your time trying to fix it - you cant. And don't call anyone about it either - they cant help you.... ... so you be on your own (with all the other millions for company)!

I asked pressf1 about it too they have had me return the browser to default and to then reinstall addons etc -- to no avail. My java on ie pops up with a notebook page when I load something using it .. ???

By law MyLotto.co.nz has to reject users that are unable to pass across a valid IP address. As it stands the system reads it as 'Host IP null" this is typically because of the data stored in the following registery entry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform This is due to all updates to IE each time it adds additional keys i.e - ".NET CLR 2.0.50727" each key is passed across and if the length is more than 255 then you will experience a number of issues like this. Quick solution install Google Chrome or Firefox and this issue will be resolved. |
