Greetings all!

I have a problem with the new workstation.
Something is so tightly blocked inside that IE cannot run a search applet in the documentation.
Whatever settings I turn on or off, I keep receiving message that SearchApplet is blocked by secutity settings (see the screenshot in the attachement). I tried to downgrade IE to version 8 but it didn't help.

Not 100% NX-related question, I understand, but I rellay need help. I am an engineer, and not a doctor for Microsoft paranoia, therefore I have limited experience in bypassing numerous secutity settings in Windows.

Java 7 blocks local scripts by default, it's a knee jerk reaction by Oracle to get around the host of security vulnerabilities that still exist even in the latest version of Java.

Allowing exceptions for NX Help as they pop up should work.

If your feeling brave you could wind down the security settings using the control panel app.
 
Hi,
Are you able to access the nx documentation through index.html file (location is the folder of your NX install and folder is UGDOC)?

@rothers I allowed all pop-ups that appeared.

kapmnit123 Yes, I am. Everything is accessible except for the problems with search.

Meanwhile I found a partial workaround. If I open 64-bit version of IE and open documentaion within it manually, search is not blocked.
 
Is this has something to do with the latest version of JRE installed? I came across this issue some times back (search doesn't give any results at all) and once i installed the latest JRE version (sorry i am not that on software version but looks like i am using JRE1.7 as of now).

I wish I knew if this has something to do with JRE. But it can possibly be the case. How to fix it in this case?
 
Hi,
It could be one of my assumptions only (please wait for some expert opinion here but :) the only thing i knew is that the issue got solved in my case after this)as far as latest JRE insatllation is concerned then it can be downloaded from JAVA official site.Sorry i think i cannot be of much help to you.

Hi All,

After having the same problems and reading this thread I have been digging deeper to find the solution. I am using windows 7 64bit. What helped for me was;
- Go to Control panel
- click "Software"
- click "Java (32bit)"
- go to the "Security"tab
- change the security level to "medium"

Now restart the help and a security prompt will ask you whether or not you would like to allow the content.

Best regards,

Henk-Jan
