ActiveX Control

[Guest Lou]

I am attempting to download & install Microsoft Update.

When I attempt this I am told I need ActiveX Control.

The instructions for installing ActiveX Control reads as follows:

1. Right-click the Internet Information Bar. It's located just below the

address bar.

2. In the right-click menu, click Install ActiveX Control.

 

When I right-click the Internet Information Bar, there is no "Install

ActiveX Control" in the menu.

How do I work around this problem?

Re: ActiveX Control

 

Hi Carey, after I run the diag tool, it gets stuck on "Checking Windows

validation ActiveX load" while all else passes. Now what?

 

Passed Active scripting allowed

Passed Display images enabled

Passed Computer time and date correct

Passed Cookies enabled

Passed ActiveX enabled

Passed Office validation ActiveX loaded

Passed Validation Self-help ActiveX loaded
