Please help !!


I've nothing but problems with SOE's methods of "beta" testing since the two years+ now. Again, I am having problems...


To register for the Beta testing it had first shown a web site where I chose "I agree" to sign up although it went to the following screen with no options to register:


System Requirements Entry


Please complete the beta registration forms to proceed. You must apply for the beta test from the computer you plan to use while testing. If you are filling this application out from a different computer, then you can complete your beta application and update your computer specifications at a later time.

You must accept the Control and ActiveX must be enabled for your browser in order for the System Requirements Test to operate. Click here to read about all of the requirements of this plug-in. To activate ActiveX, please follow the below instructions:

  • From the "Tools" menu, select "Internet Options".

  • In the Internet Options window, select the "Security" tab.

  • Highlight the "Internet" web content zone icon (the globe) and select the "Default Level" button (medium setting).

  • Click the "OK" button to accept your changes.
If you are using custom security settings, your "ActiveX controls and plug-ins options" should be set as follows:

  • Set "Download signed ActiveX controls" to "prompt" or "enable"

  • Set "Download unsigned ActiveX controls" to "disable"

  • Set "Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe" to "disable"

  • Set "Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins" to "enable"

  • Set "Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting" to "enable"

  • Click the "Okay" button to accept your changes.

What is wrong?

What web browser are you using when you're trying to register? If you're using Firefox, then that's your problem. The registration requires an ActiveX component to run a check on your computer’s hardware, which won’t work with Firefox (yet). You should use Internet Explorer to fill out the registration, as it will be able to run the ActiveX component, and run the required hardware check on your computer. If that is the browser you are already using when you’re trying to fill out the registration form, then check the settings mentioned in the error message you received.

If you read the text you'd notice that it mentions that it will send you the email if you're selected.
