ActiveX Problem

[QueenBee]

Maybe someone can help me with this.. When I try to run 3D scripts and stuff like that (for animation) I get an error saying my security settings do not allow ActiveX controls. So I thought it was because I had them on "High" and I turned them down to "Low" and it didn't work. I restarted, and it still didn't work..

Can anyone help and tell me what's going on?

[crni]

i dunno...so, let's try

go to your security settings and click on custom level. then check that all options regarding activeX to enable...

...maybe it helps...who knows

[QueenBee]

Let's see here..
Nope. I really don't understand the problem.. It SHOULD work.. Damn puter.. *beats puter with stick*

[QueenBee]

This is what it says exactly:

"Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly."

[QueenBee]

Tsk tsk.. Well I have many lighters around here :P But I donno about that petrol.. :P

*points to crni's last post*

yah that!

I had the same error...and it should be as simple as just changing the security level to Default...otherwise i dunno sowwie

[QueenBee]

None of those things worked... The first link was to help out IE 4 and 5, and I have IE 6.. So I really don't know..

[crni]

oh, sorry

here's a rose to cheer you up

P.S. you should really consider getting some hi-octance/highly-flamable fuel

[QueenBee]

Mmm.. Thanks.. A rose always cheers me up.. :P Well that's not completely true.. Actually, there's no truth to it.. lol..:P

Mon...are u using Windows XP Home?

*geek talk begins*
Apparently a lot of other people are having the same problem with XP home and ActiveX controls.

Some people were able to fix it...but u might have to try diff things :

1) Go to Tools\internet options\security\custom level.......The first 5 opt5ions are ActiveX controls

You should set these to :-

enable
disable
disable
enable
enable

Scroll down to the bottom and under "scripting" you should enable "active scripting"

Also go to Tools\internet options\advanced and make sure

enable install on demand (internet explorer)
enable install on demand (other)

are both unticked.

2) Check out this link :-

3) You can also get this message if you have disabled the Java permissions.

I have Win 2000 and IE 6

I fixed the problem by going to Tools--> Internet Options--> Security--> Internet--> Custom Level

Scroll down to Java Permissions - see if it is Disabled
Mine was, and I changed it to Low Safety

now the page in question doesn't give me the "Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on the page. As a result, the page may not display correctly"
message.

Hope any/all of these works for u

[QueenBee]

Whoa..you people sure know how to help out.. But it STILL doesn't work! Arrrghh! What's wrong with this?! Could it be the sites fault??

[denial]

QueenBee, may I see what is it that you try to run? hmm ... personally .. I would never put security to low level .. well .. unless its about t.a.t.u

I'm on win2k server and IE6

[crni]

if you have xp, with ie6, then you don't have java, right? or do you have sp1 for xp.....anyway, do you have java? if you don't, here's the link... here.

Is Java and ActiveX same ?
I thought Java is SUN and ActiveX is Microsoft .

tell me if I'm wrong..

[QueenBee]

Well yeah.. But crni helped me out by making me download Mozilla.

Thanks everyone
