667485	2008-05-09 01:50:00	I installed a game that was on the latest PCWorld disk called "Night of a Million Billion Zombies". Unfortunately the game never worked but worse than that it altered some settings on my PC that I don't know how to undo. I'm hoping someone there does. The msg I get is as follows: "Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, this page may not display correctly" I'm using XP and cannot find anyway of altering any security settings that might affect ActiveX. Any clues please?	Muzza28 (13721)

Might have to tick the 2nd option under security Thanks for the suggestion . Unfortunately no difference . I also tried using the default settings for IE but also no change	Muzza28 (13721)
667488	2008-05-09 02:13:00	Are you using a firewall, besides XP's? If so, which firewall?	Speedy Gonzales (78)
667489	2008-05-09 02:19:00	AVG Free Edition	Muzza28 (13721)
667490	2008-05-09 02:23:00	Hmm dont think that includes a firewall. WHAT version of IE is it? 6 or 7? If its 7, go to advanced and click on reset	Speedy Gonzales (78)
667491	2008-05-09 02:34:00	Thanks for your help. Looks like you were right first time. When I hit the "restore defaults" button under Advanced I didn't notice that the 2nd box had been unticked again. Changing it to "ticked" solved the problem. and sorry my firewall is using ZoneAlarm. Had a wee blond moment there. Thanks again Speedy	Muzza28 (13721)
