I am rather new to web design and when I run my page in IE I get the pop-up, %26quot;To help protect you security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer.%26quot; What could be causing this? Will it pop up on most Ie browsers? I can%26#039;t figure out what it%26#039;s blocking. Any help or suggestions would be very helpful.
ActiveX and scripts in web design?
Chances are you are using some type of javascript in your page. With the default security settings in IE you will always get that message. It isn%26#039;t an error just a warning.
The problem with that is of course ,if you are getting that message so is everyone else using IE when visiting your page. Look for where you are using a javascript, and get rid of it if possible.
ActiveX and scripts in web design?
It%26#039;s probably blocking some kind of script. I don%26#039;t know much about what ActiveX does, but it usually is harmless. I%26#039;ve never had anything bad come from it, that%26#039;s just IE being IE. I suggest getting Mozilla Firerox. It%26#039;s faster and has a whole bunch of addons you can add and features you can customize. Not to mention IE has that security hole that I think still hasn%26#039;t been fixed. Just allow the ActiveX if you need it, like for a program that runs on the page or something, that%26#039;s what I%26#039;m guessing it%26#039;s for.
Other Replys:%26quot;that%26quot; security hole thta i %26quot;think%26quot; hasnt been fixed? lol
the only reason you dont get those popups in firefox is cuz they just automatically allow just about everything, and they call it secure!
anways, if your using a free website provider, then it is likely that they add popups and banner adds among other shizzle to ur webpage that might be requiring active x controls
and active x controls can be quite dangerous, i love how that first guy says %26quot;iv never had any problems from active x controls%26quot;, like as though he would realize if there was a key logger %26quot;added on%26quot; to his web browser...rofl
