Hello,

Is anyone FAMILIAR with, AlternaTIFF a web browser add-on (ActiveX control or plug-in) that displays most of the common types of TIFF image files.

Unfortunately, I don't, when I was rich, I had a software prescribed or reccomended by the USPTO, since then, they have changed their system,
and now are offering the above. I have located what looks like a download from
a computer search, and have results showing a mess of files for Active X, do you care to discuss and inform, I am not sure what I getting myself infor and if it is loaded it does not seem to be working ?  
Well I checked out AlternaTIFF plug in and it seems legit.  McAfee site advisor gives it a green light and the downloads contain no viruses or spyware or adware.

The software page does say you have to register it before it will work.  Have you done so?This link is a test page for the plugin, it has LINKS to advice based on what you can see on this page.  Check it out.

I will check this, and reply, Thank you !

JpI have decided to delete these files and do a current download,
however I am getting this message when trying, what does it mean ?

Cannot delete FILE : Cannot read from source file or disk.

What does it mean? what to do ?

JpI do not know what files you are trying to delete, but I would advise, at least for now, not to delete anything.

Do the test page and follow the advice there.

If that does not work you can try installing the software again, there is likely no NEED to delete anything first as this is just a plug in.Will do.

JpSerrick,

Would appreciate it if you could tell me how to access this user log in procedure  as in the notation below , . . .

Note: If you are using a version of Windows with security features (Windows NT, 2000, or XP), you will need to be logged into your computer as a user who has permission to install ActiveX controls.

Also, If you wish I could try downloading the file search, I dont think you could open .

JpWhat version of windows are you using?WXP HomeOk I know you have a LOT of questions and I want to help you, but you have to keep me informed as to whats happening.

So here are some questions.

What happened when you went to the "test page"?

Also...

When you first boot up your computer, does it go directly into windows or do you have to click on a username from a list of other users first?

Also...

Do you have quicktime installed?

Also, what version of internet explorer are you using? Quote
