[Zope] newbie zope question -- stuck in quick-start page

[Phil Harris]

As an addition to Caseys coments, If your using Win32 with IE and Outlook
Express then you'll also need to shutdown OE in certain circumstances.

If OE is started after IE then it picks up the security information used in
the instance of IE, this is a known problem and can also cause problems.

In fact you're probably better closing all programs (you'd be surprised at
the number of apps using IE browsing capabilities).
