Hi Brian,
Thanks for your quick reply.
I'm pretty sure I understand the differences between messages and
warnings.
However to me this is an error message. It appears in a box with a yellow
triangle infilled with ! in the middle of ONLYthe troublshooting pages and
reads -
'An ActiveX control on this page is not safe. Your current security
settings
prohibit running unsafe controls on this page. As a result this page may
not
display as intended'. OK
I'm in H&S, Net & Web, Fixing Net/Web Problems, Fix a Problem
Hope this helps

Regards and thanks again

That's not an error message, it's a warning and you have an option to
allow the
ActiveX to run or not. The warning is just under the tool menu, correct?
If so,
click on the yellow area the warning is in and click allow, if you deny
it to run
your tshooter won't work.

When I run a troubleshooter on my daughter's machine, I get an error
message
stating that the ActiveX is unsafe etc, etc This does not occur if NOT
running a troubleshooter. She's running XP Pro
