The FP Banner Ad Manager component DOES NOT use ActiveX, it is Java Applet which requires users to
have a Java Virtual Machine installed.
Are you sure that you are not using Flash, as Flash does require ActiveX under IE.
Since this is work computer, you need to check with your system admin to see if they are block Java
applets or ActiveX.
The best solution would be to use JavaScript to rotate banner images.
