Yeah I believe it's called "ActiveX" more commonly referred to as "Radi0Active HaX"

KEINE MITLEID FUR MICROSOFT!!!

Meh, don't use IE.

Oy. Then again not too suprising.

I have active X turned off, never have trouble surfing. I actually get fewer spam pop-ups.

After saying that, they said "It's just as we planned!"

They have to let stuff like this go or something, just frustrate the consumer. Either that, or they laid off every bug tester to save money.

I'm beginning to wonder if Microsoft has started leaving security holes in their products in order to make the unwashed masses happy about the arrival of total-security Palladium.

I guess its all part of Bill Gates strategy sell programs with a big flaw in them,and then sell other programs with more flaws and so on and so on...............

For once I'm inclined to agree with you. If GM built cars the way Microsoft makes software, occasionally they'd blow up when you put the key in the ignition.
