[Year 12 IT Apps] RE: Google docs issue

[Laurie Savage]

Odd, Firefox is part of the DEET image on the latest laptops. The other
questions are:

 

What exactly does your technician mean by "not being able to lock down the
internet settings"?

Why is your technician not staying up to date with windows update releases
and presumably network security issues (IE6 instead of IE7)?

Why is your technician not facilitating e-learning?

Subject: [Year 12 IT Apps] RE: Google docs issue

 

One of our staff has tried Google docs for some collaborative work, but when
the students open the doc, they only see a small window on the browser. I
also logged on and had the same experience. We are using IE6 on our
computers.

When I tried it on my machine using Firefox 3, I had no problem.

I asked our network admin to install Firefox, but he claims there is a
security issue with not being able to lock down the internet settings in
firefox.

 

Has anyone else had an issue with Google docs?

Does anyone know about the security issue with Firefox?
