Question for you. I just got started using the computer we bought while I was away. MOst web sites I get pictures that only show a box with a little red x in the corner. SOmetimes I get a message that says " you are not currently set to run active x controls" or something like that. Is this something in my settings on IE? I went in and manually enabled everything in the security zone, but got nothing. I am kinda of a computer retard, I know how to turn one on, type and surf. THat's about it. Any insight would be great. Thanks.

He's lookin' into it....

If you go into Internet Options and hit the security tab and just click to go back to the default setting, it should put you at a medium level that ~should~ work....

OT - didn't you used to turn all pictures on and off in IE when you were on dial up?

This doesn't sound like your error message, pictures shouldn't be Active X controls, I don't think.... But see if any of this sounds like you.
