Hello,
I know you guys are the best but maybe someone can implement this specific code to let impatient users know what's going on. One example is that I use Alpha version of Windows 8 and IE 10 of which are not compatible with NOP websites.
Using IE 10 one must use compatibility mode however, if you implement this change to the "login screen" .... most important, users will know exactly what is going on and any potential errors.
I could do this but I'm not a pro at Visual studio but I have done this before painstakingly with debugging errors and crashes.
I'm back after a 3 year hiatus. I remember you guys are the best. See below if anyone dares take a shot at this.
