How to Disable an ActiveX Error on Internet Explorer
1. Click the 'Start' button in Windows, then type 'Internet Options' in the search bar. Click on the 'Internet Options' link.
2. Select the 'Security' tab, and click on 'Custom level...'
3. Locate the 'ActiveX controls and plug-ins' option, and choose 'Prompt' for the 'Download Signed ActiveX controls option.'
4. Click on the bubble marked 'Enable' next to the 'Run ActiveX Controls And Plug-Ins' option.
5. Click on the bubble marked 'Enable' next to the 'Script ActiveX Controls Marked Safe for Scripting' option.
6. Click on the bubble marked 'Disable' next to the 'Download Unsigned ActiveX Controls and Initialize' option.
7. Click on the bubble marked 'Disable' for the 'Script ActiveX Control Not Marked as Safe Entries' option.
8. Click 'OK' to save the settings and start up your web browser. When you come across certain ActiveX applications on a web page, IE will prompt you either to allow or not allow the script to run. Click on the yellow ActiveX prompt that appears under the address bar of your browser, and select 'Yes.'
