    Hello. I just got the CD for “Professional Ethics: The AICPA’s Comprehensive Course”. But I can’t get it run on my computer. I have followed the instructions having two steps (Settings PDF and Launch course), however everytime I did, the IE browser always shows “need modification with Active X” or something like that. I cannot go proceed with that pop-up window. Did anybody have any experience with that? I will be greatly appreciative if anyone can help me.

    @CPA I actually had the same incident…I followed the instructions like the CD tells you to do to launch the course but I still got some error message. What I did though, was just downloaded Mozilla Firefox and it has worked for me. I just started the course last night. I am hoping to get it done this weekend. Did you ever fix your issue?

    I also used a Firefox browser and didn't have any issues.

    I had the same problem, but firefox did not help. I called AICPA and told them. They offered me a replacement CD or book free of charge. I took the book. But I hope that I don't have to read the entire thing

    Just casually bumping this because I cannot get this CD to load whatsoever.

    I just get a blackscreen when I try to boot up any of the modules. It's driving me nuts.

    Anybody else had luck with the CD? I've tried Chrome, IE, and Firefox. The closest I got to it working was firefox, but once the module loaded I only get black screens.

    I couldn't get it to work.

    However, I didn't need to after a bit of research. If you tell AICPA that the CD is not working, they will send you a text version. However, there should be a .PDF in your CD file (with a bunch of other .PDFs) labeled “Study Guide” and “Exam”. The Study Guide pdf has all the information you need to do the questions. The “Exam” pdf is the actual exam.

    I suggest just doing a CTRL-F on the Study Guide to help find your answers.

    Good luck!
