everytime i go on to IE8 .. underneath the standard toolbars i get a strip pop up saying
"attention .. to help protect your security IE has restricted the webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer . Click here for options "
click .......then box says "allow blocked content".. click then box headed "security warning" asks me if i'm sure ....
clicking that makes it go away.
How do i get rid of this happening ??
thanks

Set it to always allow blocked content / dangerous scripts etc in security settings .
You can add in trusted sites to make the blocker a bit less obtrusive .

Turn off = run scripts and Active X that may take over your computer .
But be prepared to find a malware full PC one morning .
