Hi,

After I installed IE8, which I downloaded from the Microsoft website, it
requires me to login to some community, so I filled in the username,
password and e-mail adress, I even checked the I AGREE checkbox, when I
click on the submit button I get straight back to the same page.

I notice just above the I AGREE checkbox and subit button a square with
weird looking wavy lines, is there something that I am suppose to do with
this square

Thank You in Advance
Merci a l'avance

Martin

You are not 'required' to do anything after installing IE8 - what are
you talking about?

When I start IE8 it requires me to login to some community, since i do not
have any ID/Passowrd already setup with this community, I need to set one up
but I can not because of the problem that I specified below
And until I can login to the community, I can not use IE8

I say again...

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO LOG IN TO ANY "COMMUNITY" TO USE IE8.

If you are getting that response, then you did not get IE8 from an
authorized/clean source, and should uninstall it, run recognised
malware cleaning tools, and then reinstall IE8 from the Microsoft
download site (or from Windows Updates, where it is available now)

I got it from http://www.microsoft.com and then I clicked on the GET IE8,
you can not get any cleanner than that, and yes until I can create the
login in the community there is nothing that I can do with either IE8

I got it from http://www.microsoft.com and then I clicked on the GET IE8,
and until I can get the login created I can not do anything with either IE8,
and the community is MICROSOFT community, and as I said before it asked me
to provide a user ID, password, e-mail adress, and then just above the
submit there is a square in which there is a bunch of wavy lines and it says
that I must copy the word(s), which I do not know which word(s) is that, and
I can not replicate those wavy line since my computer has only a keyboard
and a mouse, and I do not know how to replicate those lines using those

BTW I remember that I had a similar problem using facebook, I could not, and
still can not, add any friends because it does something similar, but there
it says that I MUST copy those wavy lines and I never figured out how

You're seeing what's called CAPCHA (it's a pun on the English word
"capture").

You're not supposed to copy the wavy lines. You're supposed to see several
letters and numbers superposed on those lines or partially hidden by them,
and what you're supposed to do is type those letters and numbers. NB: they
are case sensitive.

It's a sort of password, and it's supposed to defeat "bots", robots that
sneak into such sites. In fact, it amounts to a Turing Test.

If you can't see the letters, then you have a problem with your monitor or
browser color settings.
