ActiveX warning starting XP Newsgroups

I

Ian

Opening XP Newsgroups with IE 8, (version 8.0.6001.18702IC), a heading at top
of screen says:
"You must enable ActiveX controls in order to browse Discussion Groups"
(Also can't click the + to expand the thread, which I expect is related).

This occurs with IE even though I have applied standard instructions to
ensure ActiveX is enabled through Internet Options and IE passes the ActiveX
test at

Surprisingly another browser, (Slim Browser), does not have this trouble.
Any ideas how to make IE work in this respect

Regards - Ian
