When you visit certain Web sites, you often get the error message of “Done, but with errors on page.” What does that mean and is there anything to do to fix it?
This error usually only shows up in Internet Explorer and it mainly has to do with JavaScript. If the Web site you’re trying to view uses JavaScript, you may run into a script related error, which triggers the “Done, but with errors on page” message. It is usually generated by an error in the site’s code. Only the developers of the site can get in and fix it.
In can be eliminated easily by Clicking: Menu: Tools – Internet Options – Advanced tab. Check “Disable script debugging” Uncheck “Display a notification about every script error” Unless you are the developer of the web site, you may not want this notification. And like magic; problem solved!

Do you have something that requires a name but you don’t want anything in it? You could just throw nonsense in there, but a blank space would be best. In actuality, there is an invisible character! This special character is the equivalent of a space:
Hold down ALT then type 0160 (Alt+0160) on the number keypad at the right side of your keyboard.
Ways to Use the Invisible Character
- You could use it as an email address when filling out forms: @ .com
- Giving your desktop shortcuts blank labels so all you see is the icon. (This will only work on shortcuts, not on My Computer, My Documents, or program icons.)
You must have your shortcut labels set to drop shadow so that the they are clear.
Then, follow the normal way to change the filename: click the name slowly two times to highlight the name. Or click the icon once and hit F2.
Type in our invisible character code (Alt+0160). There you go–an icon with no label.
Keep in mind that if you want to do this to other shortcuts you can’t have the same name, so just type the code more than once. That means that for the first shortcut you type Alt+0160 release the Alt key then type Alt+0160 again. For the third icon do it three times, etc.

When you start your Windows Vista or Windows 7 computer, by default the system makes you enter your password to log in. Here’s a way to get around it.
When you first install Vista or 7 and start using it, you are required to enter in a password for your account. But after that, you’re not really given a choice to remove the password if you don’t want it. You’re just sort of stuck typing it in every time and that can get old rather quickly!
If you’re not the only one who uses your computer, consider leaving it this way. It is a good security feature and it helps to keep all of the different accounts, files and preferences separate from each other. But if you’re the only one who ever uses your computer, you should be able to get rid of the password prompt if you want.
If you’d like to bypass the Windows Vista and 7 log on process and remove your password, just follow these steps:
- Go to Start, Control Panel.
- Click on the User Accounts and Family Safety link.
- Next, click on the User Accounts link.
- Under the “Make changes to your user account” section, click on the Remove Your Password link for your account.
- On the next screen that comes up, enter in your current password.
- Click on the Remove Password button to confirm everything.
- Close out of all the open windows and restart your computer. That will allow you to test the system to make sure your password really was removed.
