Internet Explorer has...... Please help.

Hi, Think it must be my fault somehow but I've been plagued for the last couple of days with a blank gray screen with the following message'Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer'. This has happened several times today & even when looking at the Control Panel it happens:mad:. I'm using Windows 7 & my browser is Firefox. I've recently installed Incredimail & Magnetic & don't know if the problem is connected. Can anyone advise me what I've done to cause this now constant problem & how can I solve it. I'm not a very techie person so please be patient with me.Many thanks in advance.

HAve you got the IE View or IE Tab extensions in Firefox

Decided to uninstall IncrediMail & magnetic screen savers/wallpaper and that appears to have solved my problem.
I previously used IncrediMail when using Windows XP but doesn't seem to like Windows 7 very much. Really wasn't worth all the aggro. Thank you both for your help.
