Re: ActiveX Controls error message!

Hi Andrew :-)

Jan,
Also, you mentioned removing IE
from my program list, I didn't fully understand that one so I haven't done
it. Did you mean from the start menu? Thanks again for trying to tackle my
problem!

No no...that is only *if* you have Zone Alarm Pro...and it was to add the browser to the Program list.


<quote>
Try adding your IE browser to your Programs list anew. Go to your Programs
List, locate IE, right click on it, then click to 'remove'. Make sure your
ZASS program alerts are on then open IE. You should get an 'access' program
alert, click allow and the 'remember this' box.
<end quote>

If you don't have Zone Alarm Pro then you can ignore this.
**********************************************************

Go to Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>
Check the box next to "Enable third-party browser extensions (requires reboot)
OK out and then reboot.


If this resolves the problem see the information here and follow the instructions to clean the malware from your system:

If it does not resolve the problem, continue with the information below

Try disabling the Norton to see if that helps. Also, do you have any 3rd party ad or popup blockers on your system? Google or Yahoo toolbar? Yahoo companion? If so, disable them, or for Yahoo Companion, uninstall it.

and..

Then go into IE > Tools > Internet Options >Security > Custom Level and disable everything under ActiveX Controls and Plugins.
