Re: "Your current security settings prohibit ActiveX..

Thanks for the reply Eric

Yes. My only issue is in the Trusted Sites zone. I'm aware that it should happen otherwise.

Here's one that does it to me. Abit motherboard site:

»www.abit.com.tw/abitweb/webjsp/e···ndex.jsp

It does show as Trusted, and not Mixed.

Thanks again.

On my IE 5.5, if I set the Run ActiveX Controls and Plugins to Enable, the warning goes away.

Pinan:

As I suspected, that abit page is pulling content from at least three different sources. The main source of content is:

www.abit.com.tw

But it's also getting content from:

202.168.194.118
download.macromedia.com

Indeed, that page is loaded with Flash ads, so it's undoubtedly the macromedia.com that's causing your problem. If you've already got www.abit.com.tw or abit.com.tw in your Trusted sites zone, then the problem is this: either you've got macromedia.com in your Restricted sites zone, or you've got the Internet zone configured to disallow ActiveX controls.

Are you seeing the Flash ads at the very top and then along the sides?

1. I have no sites in Restricted Sites. In Trusted, as stated above, ActiveX are set to Enable. However, in "Internet", ActiveX is Disabled. Is that the culprit, due to Macromedia?

2. No, I don't see the ads, just the red x where they would be.

Thanks for the info on the site though.

Contango: As I stated above, ActiveX are set to Enable in Trusted Sites. Thanks anyway.

Next?

Edit:

Just for fun I added macromedia.com to my Trusted Sites. Still no go.

Based on what Eric posted, it sounds that the stuff on the trusted site page that loads from other sites (that are not in your trusted list) is what triggers the Active X blurb. So in this case it appears it would be the macromedia site stuff that triggers the blurb.
