I'm assuming someone put a regular Ppt file on a webpage, and that 'someone'
is not you.
Right-click the link and select 'Save target as' and save the pres to your
hard drive. Open this file instead. If the file is OK, this should work.
--sometimes files won't open properly through the browser. If this is your
pres on your webpage, that's a different set of problems.

We have several websites on our Intranet that utilize Power Point Presentations to enhance the sites. An example is an Organization chart, meeting presentations, and quality control documents. We have MANY people that can view the PPS and PPT files with no problems and others get just a blank screen when trying to display the page. We do NOT want people downloading ("Save As") the presentation to their own computers, since many of these documents are quality control documents. We need to insure that they always have the latest and greatest from the website. If we allow them to do a Save As, they will use the version on their computers, instead of the latest version on the web server
We have many Windows 98 and higher with IE 6.0 computers having the same problem.
The PowerPoint Presentations were created in both Office 97 and 2000. The presentations are stored to allow downward compatability to insure the Office 97 users can view them, since most users have Office 97 on their computers.
We tried install the PowerPoint Viewer to see if that would resolve the issue and it did not
So we tried re-installing MS Office and it seems to work fine for a while and then stops again. Why does a reinstall of MS Office work for a while? Is there a better fix so that we do NOT need to keep re-installing office
The "Save As" is not an option as you have suggested
Please help!!
