Does anyone have any suggestions on what wrong it is?

something, but I get no idea on what is missing.

Oh, you want users to install an ActiveX control (for their scanner to
run local) that they don't need? That's how these online scanners work.
They install an AX control on your host so it run as a local client to
open your files to interrogate them.

In a virtual machine (Windows XP, IE7) so I don't pollute my real host,
clicking Start displays a page asking if I accept their terms.
Accepting and continuing gets to their web page where, gee big surprise,
they want you to install their AX control. So did you?
 
Thank everyone very much for suggestions
There is no request message for installing ActiveX control, which usually
drop down below the URL address bar. Do you have any suggestions?

The choices for the AX install prompt are the yellow infobar or a popup
window. It's one of the other. You cannot disable the prompt; however,
you can disable support for scripting which would eliminate the prompt.
So what security zone is shown in the status bar when you visit that
page? Is scripting disabled in that security zone?

So what happens when you click on their "Click here to install" link or
right-click on the area for their AX display and select "Install this
add-on"?
 
Thank you very much for your suggestions
When I check on one computer, which AX install is prompt, but when I check
on other computer, the AX install is not prompt at all and showing no image
for web site, do I disable any option for IE 6 on XP? Where can I enable them?

Again ...

Look in the status bar of IE to see under what security zone that web
page is getting rendered. Then go into that security zone (Internet
Options -> Security tab) and make sure scripting support is enabled.
