Hello.

For some reason not known to me..I can no longer view websites with flash intros including mine.

I get this warning.
Microsoft internet explorer
This page provides potentally unsafe information to an active x controler your current security settings prohibite rudding controlers in this maner as a result tis page may not be displayed correctly.

I have no idea why its doing this now it ran great for a long time.

I did not change any security settings.

It won't even let me download flash again.

Any help would be appreciated.

Im running NT 6.0 SP 6A

Its possible that if you login as a non-privileged user, Windows won't let you install system-level plugin such as flash.

Login and install flash as Administrator, that should work.

In windows 2000, you can simply use the "Run As" command to run IE, and install from there. You don't even have to actually login as administrator.

Hi.

No Im logged in as administrator.

I can't understand it for the life of me. It was running fine, then all of a sudden I can't view my site or anyother site that has flash.

Friggen thing.

Thanks

i had exactly the same problem, this happens because you may have installed the any virus or applied some patch from microsoft web site, the only solutions to this problem is download ie 6, i get ride of this problem only by upgrading to ie 6. ;)
