Hello Bonnie,
If you are allowing Activex, but you do not see the prompt to install, it's likely the SP2 changes on popups.
(Just be sure you have faith & trust that the site is OK.)
Give this a try. Put that website into the Trusted Sites list (for example, if it is your online banking site) and or put it into the popup-blocker exclusion list.
Trusted site: I'll use "yoursite" as an example.
Internet Explorer > main menu /Tools/Internet Options >
Security Tab/ click on green icon Trusted Sites/click Sites button.
Look very closely at line that says:
"Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone" to
*clear* the selection.
(e.g. You want that to be un-checked (un-ticked)).
In the "Add this Web site to the zone:" field, add *your trusted website* to list of "Trusted Sites" --
type
http://www.yoursite.com (click Add)
Click OK. Apply changes to IE browser.
Place site into Exceptions list (to get around Pop-up blocking):
Internet Explorer > main menu /Tools/Popup Blocker>Pop-up Blocker settings
In block titled "Address of Web site to allow" type in www.yoursite.com , then click Add, then press Close.
See if that makes the difference.
Semper Fi ! (from an-ex air force-type, a salute to your Rick! )
