Title: Error Message?
Post by: CG6468 on August 29, 2012, 10:08:11 AM
I keep getting a message from only this site that, "An add-on for this websitesite failed to run."

What's happening?

It may be the Taptalk mobile add-on that Rebel added.  Have you checked your plug-in manager for errors?

I don't even know what the plug in manager is. What I do know is that it's really annoying.

If you're using Firefox, there is a plug-in manager that should show you the status of your plug-ins.

OK. Got there. What's the name of the add-on?

Does the error you're getting specify which add-on?  There should be a way to get more information (Control Panel > Event Viewer > Application Logs).

No additional info is posted. Just an "add-on".

I'll check your suggestions.

You should be able to sort them by application type (Internet Explorer).

Shooting the computer, while satisfying, will not fix this error.
