I am using outlook 2003 and its only coming from this one user. I
have no problem in IE this just happens in outllook. Any Ideas?

By default, Outlook opens mail in the Restricted web zone, which doesn't allow ActiveX controls to run. You can modify your Restricted zone, change Outlook to open mail in another zone, or tell your sender that you don't want ActiveX in the messages.
