Default Registry been changed, now error message, and cannot access regist

Hi!

My Windows ME machine suddenly began posting this error message "Your
current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page".
The computer will not boot up all the way, and I cannot use the Start button
or access files. I googled the error message, and found a fix involving
changing the registry key. To get to the registry, I opened the computer in
Safe Mode, went to the MS-DOS prompt, and ran REGEDIT. Everything opened up
fine, but I cannot open the HKEY_CURRENT_USER line in the registry - it gives
me an error message.

So my question is, does anyone know another way for me to get into and
edit my registry? And if you happen to know an alternate way to fix the
"ActiveX" message that I am getting, please let me know.

Thanks!
