I am upgrading the network from XP Pro 32 to Windows 7 Pro x64. XP Power Users could install and run ActiveX controls, however users on Windows 7 x64 cannot install the controls from sites on the Internet or on the internal intranet. They do not even seem to be getting a prompt. (Flash...

The short story:
I replaced a low end firewall with a 3Com Gigabit Firewall model 3CREVF100-73. The low end firewall had some static routes on it to redirect traffic for internal subnets to a different default gateway however the same settings on the 3Com do not see to be taking. The traffic...
