Hi
Suddenly I keep getting an annoying pop up message saying your security settings does not allow web sites to use Active X controls on your computer, it is really getting on my nerves ..What I want to know is there any way of turning it off? it comes on when I am on my home page too? :mad: Cheers

Try this to turn off ActiveX controlsYour tax bill is the penalty you pay for not helping the right candidates get into office.:D0 -
Did what it said and disabled them but it was still popping up? and then I found I could not access some programmes properly like Photo bucket so switched it back... I do not understand why this has just started it was fine a few weeks ago was wondering if to do a system restore ? and see if this clears it0

Tried them all but for the last one which tells you how to remove it all together don't think I will go there because I am not sure what I am doing with things like that and usually end up with a bigger problem than I started with ... It makes no difference if I have checked /unchecked them in security tab it still does it ..getting on my pigging nerves popping up all the time :mad: but hey Thanks for trying to sort it out for me Kev .0
