    information bar on WIN XP SP2. look at the link below, apparently it messes
    with the Active x settings.
    We could do with more info about how to deal with this in relation to our
    courses.
    It does not allow windows to open, when the SP2 PUS is disabled.
    The only way around is to turn on WIN XP PUS and hold the ctrl key.

    Is the above true or is something more sinister to blame.
    Could someone point me in the right direction please.
