Hello George,

This is the default behavior in IE. This is not something to be
"corrected". ActiveX controls can be very dangerous. They can help a
malicious web site to steal information from you computer and they can
damage Internet Explorer and cause it not to work. However, security
setting can be changed by going to Tools and selecting Internet Options.
Click on the Security tab.

I would recommend looking around
http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/default.mspx before you make any
changes to your security settings.
