I used Word 2003 some while ago to make a file which was saved in html
format to upload to my web site. On checking my web site I find the message
"This website wants to run ... ietag.dll". As far as I am aware the need to
run this file is not anything of my making.

What is this file, what does it do and how do stop it being required please?

Thanks.

The MS KB is a great source for these questions.

Here's the article I found searching for "ietag.dll" with a solution:

Thanks but it doesn't address the issue I have.

You may have missed the point of Microsoft's article in reference to
your question: the dll has to be on your machine in order to perform
some tasks. These would probably be things that you tried to do with
your web page that were not standard HTML. Also, because that file is
(probably) not on your server, you get the error.

If you're comfortable reading HTML you will find one or more of the
following in your code that triggers the error:
DllCanUnloadNow, DllGetClassObject, DllRegisterServer,
DllUnregisterServer, HrIetagFreeFactoidServer,
HrIetagInitFactoidServer, resetstkoflw.
 
Had a look at the source code and dll does not occur at all!

I have had another look around. The file ietag.dll is on the computer at
C:\Program files\Common files\Microsoft shared\Smart tag.

Having looked at the HTML source code there are several instances of
SmartTagType which, I assume, is the source of the problem. The next
question is how do I stop these references being included when I save a Word
file in HTML format?
