Default Active X & security settings??

Whenever I open the "My Pictures" folder, I get an error message stating
that my security settings do not allow Active X controls to be run on this
page. Then I get script error messages everytime I scroll over any file in
the folder.

How can I reset my security settings to allow the Active X controls to run?

Thanks,
Dave

StartSettings'Internet options'Security TAB enter
move with arrow keys to highlight Intranet Icon
Select 'Custom Settings' Button

Not sure which exact ones to alter.
Use the general lists at the bottom to change things
and let the OS find the right dots.
Try 'Medium-low'
Click OK twice.

Well, for future reference, I found the problem.

My security settings were already OK.

I was using a (freeware) program called Quik-Fix Pro--Home Edition. When
enabled, this program blocks scripts from web pages. When I disable this
program, the My Pictures folder works as it should and I no longer receive
the error messages.
