AcitveX controls have their own setting in Tools->Internet Options->Security.  Select zone to specify and click "Customize Level".  This contains all sorts of settings to customzie enabling/disabling/prompting of events.\n\nFrom a security point of view... you MIGHT NOT WANT TO DO ALLOW IT TO INSTALL EVERY ACTIVEX IT COMES ACROSS.  But I'll answer anything.  sane or no.

I seriously doubt that any of the users of Answers are sending you any Active-X!\n\n But you should never download any Active-X Controls that are unsigned. You can set your Active-X preferences by going to Tools > Internet Options > Security > Internet > Custom Level > scroll down to Active-X controls and plug-ins > Then set your preferences > click OK. A fairly safe method is to set "Download Signed Active-X controls" to Prompt and set "Download Unsigned Active-X Controls" to disable.\n \nUnsigned Active-X downloads are often used to install spyware and adware on a computer and should be avoided.\n\nGood luck!

Check to see if your IE is not in full screen mode. To do this follow the step the previous answerer provided.\n\nIf your IE is in normal mode. Then you can check if an activeX is installled.\n\nGo to this directory and see if the required activeX is installed or not. If required reinstall it.\nC:&#92;WINDOWS&#92;Downloaded Program Files

I think it is a windows XP SP2 thing.  It wants you to click it to activate the activex control.

This is a security feature in Internet Explorer that prevents programs from installing without you knowing it.  If your trying to install a program, run a game, etc., just right click the notification and select "allow Active X to run".  Otherwise, you don't have to do anything.

Your firewall is probably blocking the port used in MS's activeX controls.

Your question is confusing. Clarify it first please. Do you not like the sound when IE6 blocks ActiveX? and you mean you want IE6 to do the same function but without disabling ActiveX?\n\nYou said "without enabling ActiveX". From what I understand, you want to disable that sound and not ActiveX. Simple thing to do.\n\nClick Start > Settings > Control Panel > Sounds & Audio Devices\n\nOnce Sound & Audio Devices appear, click on Sounds, then scroll down Program events and look for "Information bar" under "Windows Explorer". Click on "Information bar" and select NONE for it under "Sounds". Apply the changes and you are done! :D

It sounds like you're running into the edit that appears in IE for various  ActiveX behavior. This fix went into Windows in the last couple of months.\n\nThe problem shouldn't occur on all sites. It really depends on the web developer. There is a short term patch you can install which will buy you some time. The change in behavior was the result of a lawsuit.\n\nThe easier workaround may be to use Firefox or Opera, but  I realize some site require Internet Explorer.

Please be warned that ActiveX controls are one of the major source of virus. By doing the steps below, you are basically putting up an open invitation for viruses and trojans.\n\n1. Click Tools > Internet Options\n2. Click Security tab\n3. Click Internet\n4. Click Custom Level...\n5. Look for "ActiveX controls and plug-ins"\n6. Under Download signed ActiveX controls, click "Enable"\n\nAnd if you want ALL ActiveX controls to be downloaded...\n7. Under Download unsigned ActiveX controls, click "Enable"

The reason is ActiveX is a great way to spread virus and other damaging programmes.  Your security settings have been set up so that you are asked each time, that way they cannot 'sneak' an ActiveX inside a webpage.\nIf you want to see your settings, go to\n\nTools> Internet Options> Security..\n\nThen click on the Custom Level but rather than change everything, just have a look at your active controls.\n\nI would suggest putting up with this little annoyance so you can decide for each site you visit if you trust them

In XP, on the top of the browser, there will be a dialog saying, 'Do you want to install ActiveX control on this site?' Then, you can at least click on it ad activate, but make sure it's safe.
