Security tab in Internet Options. You might be best off leaving it the way it is unless you are ready for all kinds of rogue applets.

Allowing Active-X to run could land you in some trouble. You'll leave yourself open to some nasty code placed on malicious websites.

It is a security issue.

Like GLC said it's under the security tab in Internet options. If you specificly don't need active-x or you are visiting unknown sites it is best not to change the settings.

well with it at the default settings, which cause the error, some webpages wont load. this was never a problem before, the error just poped up one day and has continued to pop up.
