Sorry about the tardy reply. I've been busy doing other things.

A couple of questions about your advice:

- Settings for Active X. I couldn't match up Active X questions with your
settings. So, I assume you are in the Custom Level of Security tab of
Internet Options in the Tools menu. Could you please type in the options
with your settings beside them?

- Next, I have a problem with allowing active content ... when the
reference you give me recommends it to eliminate a prompt. This is not my
problem.

- I ran those 2 commands in Start Run and I don't know what they did.

Anyway, the problem seems to occur in the Yahoo! pages, so should I contact
them?

Thanks

John
