Hi,
Take a look at IE> View> Privacy report. Any content coming from other
sites?
In Internet Options> Security> Trusted sites, are the default settings being
used? Default should allow ActiveX.
And... doesn't sound like this problem:
909889- ActiveX controls may not load as expected in Internet Explorer due
to defense in depth changes introduced in security update 896688
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909889
But, you might try

(KB896688_fix.exe; a small VB app that checks the 4 values and offers a
repair option if any of them are incorrect)
Hope this helps,
Don
