        The problem is some operators using IE9 in windows7 they were not able to login into clients site.
        So our temporary solutions are :
        1.) login to clients site using in Excel( export to Microsoft excel).
        2.) login using XP mode Virtua Machine (in Windows 7)

        Yes doing this two login is really too much work.
        We encountered this problem ERROR.PNG

        We already enabled Java. Also this Website are using Active X.

        Is it prossible that the problem is in our Browser?

          What version of IE where you using on XP? IE 8? If IE 8, Windows 7 came with IE 8, so you should be able to use that if required.

          FYI, Java is not JavaScript. If you've disabled JavaScript you'll need to re enable it.

            Yes. That is a browser problem. Looks like JavaScript has not been enabled. Almost nothing will work without JavaScript today.

              We tried to used different kind of IE. I am planning to install the Application and will try to run the website in Linux mint.

                  It is the Default browser that our client required us to use.

                    Maybe you can get them to support it then?

                        XP to Mint has a lower learning curve for many people than XP to 8. We tested it. Much easier.

                        thought of testing Linux Mint today. We still have issues that cannot resolve in windows 7, so we are using Win XP mode in virtual

                        You can run Windows XP on VIrtualBox on Linux Mint.

                        If you're going to run a VM, why not just move to Win8.1/7 with an XP VM?

                          Because Mint is her main OS and what she wants to be running.
