I tried it on my system (thinking I had IE 5.5) and it worked fine. Then figured out I only had IE 5.0...

Do you have UT version 436?
Under Options > Preferences > Game (tab) is the "ngStats Local Logging" box checked?
Did you lauch view local ngStats from UT or from a windows shortcut?

Yep i have 436 patch installed. The ngstats were working fine with IE 5. When i upgraded to 5.5 and 6 they stopped.A friend of mine that has WinXP and hence IE 6 installed has exactly the same problem.
Even launching local ngstats from UT, does not make a difference.
I tried to find an answer to the website of ng but i found nothing.
Anyways, thanks for the reply.

maybe try http://forums.beyondunreal.com/

I've done some searching, but haven't found much.

I'll let you know if I dig something up.

Did you get the GOTY edition (428) or the original (400)?

Thanks for the tip though, i'll take a look at it there.
Take care.

Did you get any info from that forum? If you posted, can you link to it? I'm curious if there's a fix.

Nope nothing yet.Only 6 views and no replies.
I am going to ask Epic themselves since ngworldstats is bought by MSN i think.

I got the solution for the problem from the troubleshooting forums of www.unrealtournament.com.
For people interested and for future post search all you need is to download a fix for the ngstats:

zipped:
ftp://ftp.infogrames.net/patches/ut/NGStatsFix.exe
umod version:
ftp://ftp.infogrames.net/patches/ut/NGStatsFix.umod

Install it on your UT folder and BINGO!
