I am getting the following error msg on a variety of web
pages:

"your current security settings prohibit running activex
controls on this page"

I have already reviewed the security settings in IE 6. I
have already tried lowering the level of security. I have
also tried adding some sites to the trusted sites list,
etc. etc. No luck. the annoying error msg continues. I
even tried a restore-replace of my IE 6 files from a full
backup from mid May. I have tried already lowering the
overall security level. I even went down to "medium low".
Still i get the error msg. Still no luck. Help ridding me
of this error would be greatly appreciated.

I am running win pro 2000 and Mcaffee virus scan, sitting
behind a linksys router with a direct dsl connection.
Again, thank you in advance for any help solving this
problem.

You can get the same warning if you have disabled Java.

Java is not disabled. Security level is set to medium low.

In that case I would suspect an erroneous message.
Assuming you are also getting a script error, a script debugger
could be used to see what the cause is.

Doubleclicking on the Error indicator in the status bar will bring up
the error summary but it unfortunately never gives any interpreted code
to help there. However, as an alternative you can often use the line
number from the error message and View Source to guess where
the error is occurring. If the Previous button is enabled use it to go
back to the first error if you do use that approach.

Another trick which can help diagnose these problems is to activate
Prompt for all promptable Security settings. This could be especially
useful for you if you have machines where the identical page works.

If you need more help post a sample link which is giving you trouble.
