Answer 1

open Internet options, find security, open custom level, find ActiveX controls and plugin, and click on disable, say yes to change, and last click on use. Finish

Answer 2

Just clicking on it should do the trick, but please be aware that ActiveX is a HUGE security hole - only allow it on sites you trust completely.

Firefox is secure in part because it doesn't allow ActiveX, and there's no good reason to "require" ActiveX for everyday browsing.

Answer 3

there is nothing to worry about all that is the problem is that the wbsite you are trying to view uses Active X control just right click on the messgae and click allow.... hope that helps.

Answer 4

activeX controls are actually not something yet some lacking components on your browser. if u arise with difficulty, attempt to place in those lacking components. u in no way get that message returned.
