Hi everyone from MS, whilst I was installing an
application the firewall popped up to inform me that either an Active X or Javascript was 'attampting' to install... swap the second a for an e. Great product though ![]() |

Yes, some activex and javascript code can be malicious.

Locale set correctly - English (UK) Back to business - site XP computer with beta on running ok, the only thing I forgot was to turn off the notification box that is displayed after a scan. The computer I have installed the product on is one that is used moderately i.e on average will get 50 different people using it per day. If it runs ok for a few days I will likely install the product on one of the heavier used computers. Will keep you updated. Dick |

You may find that turning that notification box off is also buggy. I've not
tried it myself, but others have found that those checkboxes do not have the effects that they expect. (on this side of the pond it is "curb"--however, it probably isn't a word used anywhere in Word's help or user interface, so it was a poor joke!) -- FAQ for MS AntiSpy http://www.geocities.com/marfer_mvp/FAQ_MSantispy.txt "Dick Cardy" <ngnov2004@bcs-israel.com> wrote in message news:eJ79prnAFHA.1176@cpmsftngsa05.privatenews.microsoft.com... > > "Bill Sanderson" <Bill_Sanderson@msn.com.plugh.org> wrote in message > news:%23x%23Z9JnAFHA.464@CPMSFTNGSA04.privatenews.microsoft.com... >> Are you certain your locale is set correctly? <g> and what about kerb? >> -- > You lost me regarding the comment about kerb, mind you it is 3 am here. > > Locale set correctly - English (UK) > > Back to business - site XP computer with beta on running ok, the only > thing > I forgot was to turn off the notification box that is displayed after a > scan. > > The computer I have installed the product on is one that is used > moderately > i.e on average will get 50 different people using it per day.
