MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / February 2006Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page
Hello. When i open a certain email in Outlook 2003, i get the attached message. I followed the instructions in article id: 816702 and it still gives the same message. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tony --------------------------- Microsoft Internet Explorer --------------------------- Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- > Hello. > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Thanks, > Tony So change the security settings for active-x, reduce your security. Keep reducing until you have none and if the error continues either your version may not support those controls, or there is an error in the code. Hello Alan. I tried reducing security to the lowest level and still get the same message. I'm not sure of what you mean by >>your version may not support those controls, or there is an error in the code<< Thanks, Tony >> Hello. >> [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > reducing until you have none and if the error continues either your > version may not support those controls, or there is an error in the code. > When i open a certain email in Outlook 2003, i get the attached > message.

That zone, apparently, is configured to disallow ActiveX controls. You can either open your mail in a zone that allows ActiveX or you can change the Restricted zone settings.  SignatureBrian Tillman Same problem as a lot of people, it seems .... 1) How do you 'open your mail in a zone that allows ActiveX ' and what are the implications of that? 2) What are the implications of lowering the settings for the Restricted zone (assuming that that solves the problem)? What other problems might then result? > > When i open a certain email in Outlook 2003, i get the attached > > message.

The Security Zones section on Tools>Options>Security. The implications are that you could receive an HTML message containing malicious ActiveX and allow it to run. > 2) What are the implications of lowering the settings for the > Restricted zone (assuming that that solves the problem)?
