Windows XP SP2 RC1 is build 2096 (which does not have the 'active content'
option). You need to install SP2 Final after uninstalling the RC1. I'd
suggest a clean installation rather.

I don't really want to change the extensions as my clients
rely on me to upload changes to their website quickly.
That's just plain inconvenient
My System Properties "General" tab says XP Professional
Service Pack 2, v.2096
Under the "Computer Name" tab beside the buttons "Network
ID" and "Change" it gives me the option to join a domain,
so I don't believe I belong to one.
I connect to the Internet through a cable modem
My friend installed everything from scratch with a new
motherboard and everything. He partioned the new hard drive
I am logged in under the user account he created for
