This occurs if your Internet Explorer Security Settings are misconfigured.
Add the site to your "Trusted Sites" list and allow scripting of ActiveX
components.

There are 4 settings in Internet Explorer you need to configure to be
"Allowed" for your zone:

- Download signed ActiveX Controls
- Run ActiveX controls and plugins
- Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting
- Access data sources across domains
