SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario:
  • You sign in to Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 R2 on a computer that has a version of Internet Explorer later than Internet Explorer 7 installed. 
  • You start an instance message (IM) conversion with another user.
  • You try to send a file to the user.
In this scenario, only Cancel (Alt+Q) displays. You cannot see the file name and icon in the IM conversation until the file transfer is completed or canceled.

CAUSE

This issue occurs because a flag of the ActiveX control of Office Communicator 2007 R2 is not set. Therefore, Internet Explorer resets the size of the file transfer progress bar.
