How do you fix the ActiveX controls?

When trying to play games in IWin the message comes up and says and beeps that the ActiveX controls isn't working on some level. Do I need to worry about this message? If I do, how do I go about fixing this problem. Do I need to upgrade this control?

hello purplelady20, ActiveX is a proprietary format of Microsoft and won't work in any other browsers than IE.

Hello,

I am using Microsoft Expression web 4 & trying to use Ajatix Lightbox add-in. It wouldn't display correctly in IE or Mozilla. Then I allowed IE to OK ActiveX and it displayed perfectly. What am I missing with the mozilla aspect? I love to know thanks. Craig

Hi idpress2002, the only browser that runs ActiveX controls is Internet Explorer.

Can you run the demos on the Ajatix page here in your Firefox: http://www.ajatix.com/lightbox/expression-web-add-in.html? (Scroll down to "Lightbox examples")

If so, you may need vendor support on how to get it to work through Expression Web in your page.

If not, your Firefox may not be configured correctly. Please start a new question providing your system details and add-on information. You can do that here:
