XP SP2 allows users to manage add-ons including ActiveX in Internet Explorer
where you can go to tools - manage add-ons where you view, enable, and
disable ActiveX and disable. You can also use SpyBot Search and Destroy
[free download] to view ActiveX and remove those you do not want as
described in article in the link below. --- Steve
