Security Settings crashes IE 5.0

[robcarr]

Dear All,

I am using the internet explorer on the network at work, I have had a rebuild on my PC, when i first went into the home page, BTopenworld.com, i had a prompt to download macormedia flash(i think), i skipped this and now when ever I go on to any site other than this site, Internet explorer closes, I have found out that if I adjust the security settings to disable "Run ActiveX controls and plugins", I can then view any site on the web, but I do get warnings appearing about unsafe activeX controls, does anybody know a way around this so I can have my internet explorer working back to normal.

Thanks in advance for any assistance on this.

Try choice 2 .

W95 you have 3 choices . With W98 , if you have IE5.1 or higher & you
still have IE4 installed the following applies . No IE4 only 2 choices .
IE5.5 if over the top of 5.1 , offers 3 choices .

You can install IE5.1 straight over 4 . A big feature with IE5 is that
it can be repaired without uninstalling . Here is how to do it . Open
Control Panel , Add / Remove , click on Microsoft Internet Explorer ,
then click on add / remove down the bottom . This opens a window with
3 choices .

Choice 1. Add , insert your IE5 install program & you can find other
items you may not have installed 1st time .

Choice 2. Repair , fixes problems that may crop up with IE5 / Outlook

Choice 3. If unfixable , removes IE5 & goes back to IE4 , now if you
want to you can reinstall IE5 or a later version or another browser
altogether .

No Microsoft Internet Explorer in Control Panel !
