SYMPTOMS

  An error has occurred in the script on this page.
  Object doesn't support this property or method.
  Do you want to continue running scripts on this page?

WORKAROUND

When you are using Internet Explorer with OWA, on the File menu, point to New,
and then point to Window to open the Inbox in a new window. If you are using
Netscape Navigator, there is no workaround other than to close and reopen the
program.
