I want it dead. No matter what I do in Security it still pops up and makes a
noise. This is the message:

"To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this file
from showing active content that could access your computer. Click here for
options..."

Is there some deeper setting? Right now my security looks like an open barn
door. Registry?

thanks,

tcebob
 
Hi tcebob :-)

Try the following and see if it helps:

Courtesy of Ramesh -

Tools > Internet Options> Advanced
Scroll down to Security
Switch on: Allow active content to run in files on My Computer
You may need to do the same for CD's.
