Secrity Settings/ActiveX Controls IE6

G

Gene

I am running Windows 98 4.01, IE 6.0.2800.1106 and NSW
2003. After downloading recent IE critical updates, I
started getting an IE error message "Your current Security
Settings prohibit running ActiveX Controls on this page.
The page may not display properly". When trying to open
the status page of NAV, is stays on "refreshing" and does
not display current status. When trying to open NAV
Options page, it displays a blank screen. Certain web
sites also display blank screens after receiving the
message. I have uninstalled IE, NSW and NAV and
reinstalled all without improvement. I am unable to
access my Online University page and need to start on
9/18/03. I am desperate for any assistance.

I understand the problem to be: Since updating 822925, unable to run ActiveX
on trust pages. If I have misunderstood your concern, please don't hesitate
to let me know.

To solve the problem, you can try the following steps:

1. Boot the computer with the startup disk and choose "Start computer
without CD-ROM support".

NOTE: Create a Startup Disk if you do not have it. Please follow these steps
to get it:

a. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.

b. In Control Panel, double-click Add/Remove Programs.

c. In the Add/Remove Programs Properties dialog box, click the Startup Disk
tab.

d. Click Create Disk to create the Startup disk.

e. When you are prompted, insert a formatted floppy disk into the floppy
disk drive, and then click OK to confirm that the contents of the floppy
disk will be overwritten.

2. Type the following commands.

c:

cd\windows

attrib -h -s system.dat

attrib -h -s user.dat

copy system.dat system.pss

copy user.dat user.pss

attrib +h system.dat

attrib +h user.dat

NOTE: I assume you installed Windows in C:\Windows. If this is not the case,
please change the path accordingly.

3. Type the following commands.

c:

cd \windows\command

scanreg /fix

4. Restart the computer to see if the problem still exists.

If it does, continue with following steps:

1. Boot the computer with the startup disk and choose "Start computer
without CD-ROM support".

2. Type the following command:

c:

cd\windows\command

scanreg /restore

Choose a .cab file dated before the time when this issue occurred and choose
"Restore". Please use one which is as recent as possible since all registry
modification made during this period will be lost after you switch to the
registry backed up before.

3. Restart the computer and check again. If this registry has the same
problem, please boot the computer with the startup disk and repeat step 2.
Choose a registry that has already been backed up. Boot and check again.

NOTE: Please feel free to try them because we have backed up the current
registry. If we find the original registry has too many lost things to be
accepted, we may use the following steps to switch back to the current
registry:

Boot the computer with the startup disk, type the following commands.

c:

cd\windows

attrib -h system.dat

attrib -h user.dat

ren system.dat system.bad

ren user.dat user.bad

copy system.pss system.dat

copy user.pss user.dat

attrib +h system.dat

attrib +h user.dat

If you have any questions or concerns related to this issue, please let me
know. I truly appreciate your time and look forward to hearing from you.
