Hello good people. I use XP home edition. Today I downloaded a website and
was told I did not have "activex" so I could not use their site.
I have never encountered this before. I looked around in the Windows website
but couldn't find anything I could understand in connection with Activex such
as: 1. Where do I find it- do I download it? and all other obvious
questions about system requirements, etc.
Could someone help me out here?
OR at least point me in the right direction?
Thanks.....mayjacks
 
Launch Internet Explorer.
1. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
2. Click the Security tab.
3. In the Select a Web content zone to specify its security settings box, click
Internet.
4. Under Security level for this zone, if the security level is set to High,
move the slider down to Medium.
If it is not possible for security concerns to move the slider to Medium, then
follow these steps:
1. Under Security level for this zone, click Custom Level. The Security Settings
dialog box appears.
2. Under the ActiveX controls and plug-ins subsection Download signed ActiveX
controls, click either Enable or Disable.
3. The computer will still be protected from unwanted intrusions while allowing
legitimate program operations to proceed.
4. Click OK to close the Security Settings dialog box. Click Yes if prompted to
confirm the change.
5. Click Apply, and then OK to close the Internet Options dialog box.
