It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

Weclock: otherwise, I'd say you're a gigantic flaming douche bag who doesn't know the difference between a router and a modem.

OH YEAH? OH YEAH? What's the difference between a switch and a modem? Tough guy.
Anyway, you're right on all counts. I've seen better command line browsers that can kick IE6's ass.

bearcat33: Browser is Internet Explorer 6.0

That's probably your problem right there. Many sites have stopped bending over backwards to accommodate IE6's quirks, and I wouldn't be surprised if GOG was among these sites. Upgrade to at least IE7, or switch to any other up-to-date browser, and I can almost guarantee the site will work for you.
AJAX functions don't work well with IE6. You need to upgrade your browser.
C'mon guys, don't feed the troll. He has failed enough already.
Fun fact: Norway has declared war on IE6.

Living in a neighbouring country, I fully support that movement.

hehe. that makes bearcat33 enemy of the state!
cool!
Yippee!

Ditto, using a 9-year-old web browser that wasn't following the standards back then, much less now, isn't going to solve any headaches. If the sites you want to use are so backwards that they're developed to solely function in MSWIE, then at least update to 7 already, preferably 8.
That is, unless you run something earlier than Windows XP SP2 (if you run XP without any service pack, or with SP1 - run windows update and get SP3 as soon as you read this), in which case I can only recommend you get another browser; and [url=http://www.mozilla.com/]Firefox should work in Win2000, but support for that OS is fading which is why , [url=http://www.apple.com/safari/]Safari, and recent versions of Explorer doesn't support it.

read points 8 and 9.
You have read Bad rep for dummies, chapter 1.
You're using IE6.
IE6 is an atrocity. It's the absolute worst version of IE to program any website for. If I were to program a website, I would just leave out IE6 functionality and tell people to realize we live in the 21st century now and upgrade their reader.
The problem is on your end using heavily outdated software. Upgrade your software to acceptable standards and everything will run fine. Using IE6 to browse websites these days is like trying to run Crysis on a 3DFX Voodoo 2.
Despite this guy's unwarranted hostility, I checked the support page with IE6. He's right that the dxdiag upload box doesn't seem to work properly - you can browse for a file, but selecting it doesn't put anything in the box (you can type in it, though, so manually entering the file path would probably work). The box works fine in Opera.
I also see clearly-labelled "go back" and "send" buttons, which appear on the page right below where his first screenshot cuts off. The back button works; I didn't try the send button for obvious reasons. The site map and top menu bar work just fine for me, as well. No problems like the ones in his second screenshot.
Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106.

I hereby hijack this thread to be a rant on why the prequel trilogy sucks so as to shy away from the stupid post that started it all. To bearcat33, please don't act like a dick here. At least be rational when making negative statements.

oO Wow, calm down guys... I was just using that line because I find it quite ridiculous to be so over-the-top when criticizing something.
And the funny part... you all seem over-the-top also when you don't like a movie, guys...

When I stand for something, I mean it.
And the prequel trilogy deserves to be forgotten from human memory. I mean it.
