SYMPTOMS
When you click on the Telephone icon in Greetings Workshop version 1.0
or 2.0 or when you post (or upload) a greeting with Greetings Workshop
version 2.0, Greetings Workshop tries to start your default browser and
then takes you to the following Web address:
- Clicking the Telephone icon:
- Posting to the post office:
However, if Greetings Workshop cannot locate your default browser, you may
receive an error message.
RESOLUTION
Test to see if Windows 95 can locate your default browser. To do so, follow
these steps:
- Quit all running programs, including your browser.
- On your Windows 95 desktop, click Start and then Run.
- Type any valid Internet address in the Open box, for example:
- Click OK.
If you receive an error message, it indicates that Windows 95 cannot locate
and start your browser. If Windows 95 cannot do this, Greetings Workshop
cannot do this either.
To resolve this problem, contact either your Internet Service Provider
(ISP) or your browser manufacturer and request information on how to make
Windows 95 recognize your browser as the default browser.
