Browser Requirements for CAS SciFinder

The Chemical Abstracts Service's SciFinder database has been recently upgraded. Because of these upgrades, the Internet Explore 6 browser will no longer work with the SciFinder database. The Chemical Abstract Service recommends that all users upgrade to Internet Explorer 8 to fully utilize SciFinder's features.

If you cannot upgrade your Internet Explorer browser, please follow these steps:

1. Start Internet Explorer 6
2. Select Internet Options from the Tools menu
3. Select the Advanced tab
4. Scroll down to HTTP 1.1 Settings
5. Check the option labeled Use HTTP 1.1 through proxy connections
6. Click OK
   

If you continue to have problems with SciFinder, please contact the CSU Libraries Systems Office at: 706-565-3555 or library_systems@colstate.edu

CSU Libraries apologizes for this inconvenience.
