Question for the cognoscenti: should one disable all the "ActiveX" options
as well as active scripting further down on the list. In what way might
disabling these things cause problems? Would I get a message saying a given
download or whatever needed to have one of these functions so that I could
turn it on temporarily?
Thanks,
Brian
