Flash player locks IE7 when starting from Moodle on first run? I've tried various Flash player versions from 10.0.45, 10.1.12 and 10.2 but it seems everytime I start up an Articulate course for the first time it locks the Internet Explorer 7 browser and I need my task manager to close IE completely...
As this is not an 'ideal' user experience I was wondering if this was a known issue and if there might be a solution..
Hi Justin it seems to happen each Articulate course. It didn't before and all I have changed on server level was to extend the memory... I'm lost to why this is happening
One of my problems was I had a couple of pretty 'heavy' tabs loading. Once I removed the tabs, it was fine.
Are you opening the SCORM package from Moodle in a new window? Another thing I tried (and it seems to work) was to open in the same window.
Just some ideas to try.....
I downloaded HTTP Analyzer as per Brian's recommendation...when I opened the program I might as well have opened a Chinese dictionary.... It was a bit overwhelming for me.
Sorry for my late comment but I have been on vacation an my mind was of my moodle issues. Now I am back though and the problem is current again. I've done one of those http analyzers but I am just not sure what to look for?
I do open in a new window because of the screensize. No heavy tabs that I am aware of, just the standard ones.
The annoying part is it only happens on first launch! AARGH
@Brian, anything specific I need to look for in the analysis?

Does this happen with any presentation or just a specific presentation?

Hi Jeffrey,
Have you tried running an HTTP Trace Log to see exactly when IE starts to struggle? Here's a free software that will help you in troubleshooting this:

Welcome to my world....I had a similar issue.
