Can't connect to SharePoint with IE7

[boblarson]

Hi all -

Anyone have any ideas of something I can do to be able to connect up with our SharePoint site? I have WinXP SP2 with IE7 and I can't connect with IE, but I can connect with FireFox, which makes me believe that there is some setting I am missing in IE.

I've added the site to the Trusted Zone and I've selected all of the SSL options in the Advanced tab. In fact, I can connect to the site with IE7 on my home machine (Vista Home Premium) but can't with my laptop.

I've searched on Google and have tried all of the various tips that people have given, but it still hasn't worked. I even reset my browser settings to the initial shipped settings and that didn't work. I used to have a firewall but I uninstalled it and disabled the Windows Firewall and that didn't work. I tried enabling the port within the Windows firewall and that didn't work.

I have run out of ideas.

I've run into some issues where multiple tool bars in IE causes things not to run in IE correctly. Do you have more then 1 toolbar installed? Have you tried ressetting the winsock SSL?

Tried both of these and it still doesn't work. Any other suggestions?

Hi Bob,

I've been having the same problem w/ IE7/Vista and Sharepoint. I was wandering if you have come to any conclusions. I am stumped.

Thanks

Nope, I still haven't gotten it to work. It works on my home computer with Vista/IE7, but not on my laptop with XPSP2/IE7.
