Finally got an account to host a picture sorted. Apparently my old account was deleted or something.

This is what I see when I use IE9 with 4.1.7. When I see this, no matter what I enter into the path, it refuses to work.
For example:
//192.168.0.10/test = error message "Error connecting to /////192.168.0.10/test"
//192.168.0.10/test = error message "Error connecting to /////192.168.0.10/test/"
192.168.0.10/test = error message "Error connecting to ///192.168.0.10/test"
192.168.0.10/test/ = error message "Error connecting to ///192.168.0.10/test/"
\\192.168.0.10\test = error message "Error connecting to ///\\192.168.0.10\test"
\\192.168.0.10\test\ = error message "Error connecting to ///\\192.168.0.10\test\"
When I make a backup job in Firefox, I put 192.168.0.10 in the Host field, and test in the Path field, with no / or \ symbols anywhere, and it works fine. Opening up the same backup job in IE9 shows nothing but "test" in the path, and clicking the test connection button reveals "Error connecting to ///LAN"
I hope that explains the problem.
You might also notice that the "Time Machine" and "ReadyNAS Vault" buttons under the "Add a New Backup Job" button are missing in IE9.
