Your current Security settings prohibit Running ActiveX controls on this page, as a result, the page may not dispay correctly

any ideas?

I think I know what the prob is.

In internet explorer, go Tools>>internet options>>security>>custom settings....in there you will find the necessary buttons to check to allow activex to run...I would set them to "prompt" for security reasons if you are worried about certain activex attacks through your browser.

GraLk.

Are you running a firewall, such as Norton Internet Security or ZoneAlarm?

 

[WarranT]

nope no firewall

 

[madmatt]

Follow these steps and tell us the current settings:

Tools
Internet Options
Security (tab)
Internet (icon)

What is that setting? High? Medium? ....? Custom?

 

[WarranT]

its on custom

 

[madmatt]

Click "Default Level" and try again.

 

[WarranT]

nope still dont work :-(

 

[madmatt]

Same error?

 

[WarranT]

yup

surely does suck grrrrrrrrr

lol

 

[madmatt]

Okay, see those other icons, under the security tab? Click each one and click 'default level' for each and every one. Doing this will not lighten your security but will reset it to normal levels.

 

[WarranT]

yup....put them all on default.......still dont work :-(

 

[madmatt]

paste the error you are receiving, please.

Cannot find server or DNS Error

[madmatt]

Doesn't it offer a button to click to continue?

Here's what mine looks like, because my firewall blocks referals so Hotmail/MSN doesn't know what browser I am running.

Have you tried reconnecting to your ISP/DSL provider or rebooting to reload your cable connection?
