Description John Arthorne CLA 2011-12-23 08:24:44 EST 
The Orion Windows tests have been failing for the past two weeks. The error indicates it could not start internet explorer. Is it possible IE has been upgraded or moved on the Hudson Windows slave box?

I'm not aware of any changes that would cause this.  Although if I cut and paste 'C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe' into the run menu it does nothing until I make it 'C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe', then it seems happy.

-M.

Ok thanks for taking a look Matt. I will take this back to investigate more on my side.

This mysteriously stopped failing.
