I get error on IE as well.
The address at Virago's post is not valid. The valid one is:
Good to hear about the friends list issues.. Although the new options are flakey, after selecting the visible/invisible/inactive options for all characters and applying it decided to do whatever it wanted. Long dead characters were visible and current ones were invis/inactive!
Hopefully just a small glitch.. now if only the thing will work with my mouse software! 
oops... used my testing link.. fixed now.
nice update im wondering now is there a way to hide the inactive charchters on the buddy list part cause i have to scroll through 10 charachters just to get to the main 2 charchters i wanna see.

Setting my dead characters as inactive removed them from my friends list, but as I said it seems a bit flakey as it decided to ignore which options I specified and did it's own thing.
Make sure to post all your feedback in the Station Launcher Forums from the link in the article. They read through that thread pretty thoroughly.
