Need help with Yahoo photo album pics
Lots of you folks publish kitty pics on Yahoo photo albums, and I always
have a problem viewing them. I have to click away an error message from IE(6) every time. It says: "Your current settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly." How can I get rid of that? |

Because mine started doing that once I got Norton's. I"m sur eyou can disable Nortons somewhere, but I don't know where. Personally, I will be happy when the licence runs out and it stops working, so I can go back to my trusty AVG anti-virus program. It worked just fine, and didn't have the nasty habit of popping up unasked-for in the middle of another program, making that program crash, and nor did it block my internet sites without being asked to.

Which Norton product are you talking about? I have Norton Systemworks, which includes NAV. I've been using it for six years with no problems whatsoever. This IE thing just started a little while ago. I don't think it has anything to do with whatever Norton product you are talking about. |

Yowie I have an older PC with Norton A/V installed. When the subscription ran out (a couple of years ago) it wouldn't let me unsubscribe. This is probably because there is a critical .dll file damaged on the machine and I haven't been able to determine which one and replace it (repair didn't work). The PC will still boot and I can click through the errors, but every 15 days Norton comes up and asks me to renew the subscription. Apparently it is also still busily running a scan every week on the hard drive LOL The only reason I still have that machine running is some of my best recipes are on it. I'm still transferring them to this one. Jill |

Active X - sounds like you don't have a necessary plug-in installed. Does it ask if you want to install something? Jill |

I got so frustrated trying to fix this PC I finally gave up and just bought another one LOL Jill |

I don't think it has anything to do with whatever Norton product you are talking about. I have Norton SystemWorks (including NAV) installed, and I have never had that problem. ActiveX is actually part of Windows. I did a brief search and found numerous sites that refer to this problem. Here is a page from within Microsoft that describes the problem. It might be helpful to you -- but, as with many MS problems, there are many entries for you to wade through. MaryL |

Obviously, back up all data first. In fact, I am a firm believer of Murphy's Law, so I routinely make *three* backups and alternate the disks. MaryL |
