Default Web Browser Crashes EQ2

Hi,
Anytime I am in the game browser, and click a link, it locks up eq2(and crash). I asked in channels and other people said it does the same, but only on ZAM(which is what I normally use). Any idea if there is something I can do to fix this, besides using a different website in game browser? I will ask the ZAM people about it, maybe its some sort of advert or something crashing it.
Thanks,
RANS0M

Probably a combination of javascript/flash used on the website, along side the outdated source of the Mozilla browser used in-game.

There's a few threads in the EQ2 forums about this. This one is probably the best work-around:

That's an awesome tip. If it works, it should be sticky'd somewhere. I'll test today.

Yes it worked for me as well. No CTD on ZAM's site now. I agree Drums, the work around should definitely be sticky'd somewhere in here.

So no one needs to go reading through the threads to understand how to apply the work around here is a very simple walk-through of how to create a user.js file.

IMPORTANT: This work around refers to the Mozilla folder in your EverQuestII folder, NOT your regular Mozilla FireFox Browser folder if you happen to use Mozilla's FireFox for your normal internet browsing.

1. Goto C:/Program File/Sony/EverquestII/Mozilla
2. With the Mozilla Folder highlighted, right-click on an empty area of the background which contains all of the Mozilla Folders and Files.
3. Select New
4. Select Text Document
5. Name the new text document user.js "You might be presented with a warning about changing the name." Just click Ok.
If you created the file correctly you should now see a yellow "S" or scroll type of icon next to the new file.
6. Right click on the new user.js file and select Edit
7. Copy and paste the following lines.

pref("security.enable_java", false);
pref("plugin.scan.plid.all", false);
pref("plugin.scan.4xPluginFolder", false);
pref("plugin.scan.SunJRE", "20.0");
pref("plugin.scan.Acrobat", "20.0");
pref("plugin.scan.Quicktime", "20.0");
pref("plugin.scan.WindowsMediaPlayer", "20.0");

8. Click File > Save
9. Within the Mozilla Folder you should see for example:

cert8.db
cookies.text
history.dat
key3.db etc. and so on plus your new...
user.js file

That's all there is to it. Now the ZAM site should not lock up your system or crash you to the desk top.

No credit to me, I only simplified the how-to instructions.

Thanks goes to Jrral, Leader of the Dark Renown guild on the Unrest server.

Looks useful. Copied the relevant posts and stuck them in the general "Help" forum for lack of a better place: http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=15963.
