Mr. Zee

All of a sudden I get a prompt saying my security settings are too high,
even though there not. I did some searching on the net and it seems that
the problem coulld be a corrupted Active X setting. Do I need to reinstall
Windows Explorer from the Windows XP disc? Is it safe to do this? Thansk
for any help.
 
Launch Internet Explorer.
1. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
2. Click the Security tab.
3. In the Select a Web content zone to specify its security settings box,
click Internet.
4. Under Security level for this zone, if the security level is set to High,
move the slider down to Medium.
If it is not possible for security concerns to move the slider to Medium,
then follow these steps:
1. Under Security level for this zone, click Custom Level. The Security
Settings dialog box appears.
2. Under the ActiveX controls and plug-ins subsection Download signed
ActiveX controls, click either Enable or Disable.
3. The computer will still be protected from unwanted intrusions while
allowing legitimate program operations to proceed.
4. Click OK to close the Security Settings dialog box. Click Yes if prompted
to confirm the change.
5. Click Apply, and then OK to close the Internet Options dialog box.
 
Thanks very much.
