KNOWN ISSUES
============
PICS Support in Internet Explorer 4.0
-------------------------------------
The Internet Explorer Content Advisor uses PICS (Platform for
Internet Content Selection) ratings. Please be aware of the
following items:
- The PICS rating is not used for documents using the file://
protocol.
- If you have ratings enabled, they will apply to items that
you have added to your Active Desktop. A "Navigation Canceled"
message will be displayed instead of Web content for Active
Desktop items that are blocked due to content ratings.
Some Programs Do Not Detect Browser Version Correctly
in order to get the updated 128-bit extensions required for online banking with Microsoft Money (U.S. and Canadian users only). Until these extensions are installed, you will not be able to do online banking. If you are already at 128-bit level and you upgrade to a newer version of Internet Explorer, the settings will remain 128-bit, so you don't need to update the extensions again.
Norton Utilities and Norton Navigator
-------------------------------------
- Norton Utilities version 2.0 is not compatible with the Internet
Explorer 4.0 Recycle Bin because of new features that have been
added to Internet Explorer.
- If you are running Norton Navigator, note that the Control Panel
shortcuts on the Start menu do not work.
- If you reposition the taskbar to the left or right side of your
desktop, the Norton Navigator quick launch area disappears.
- If you are running Norton Navigator, you need to disable the
Norton Taskbar feature in order to use the functionality of
the new Internet Explorer 4.0 taskbar.
