    Suppose I have an activeX in HTML page with some PARAMs specified. Everytime the page loads IE asks if you want to allow the control to interact with HTML page. Now the question. How can I disable this? I don't want users to press Yes everytime they come to the page! Is there any way without buying an expensive license from VeriSign ($400) and without changing security settings? Philip Patrick Web-site: www.stpworks.com "Two beer or not two beer?" Shakesbeer

      Implement IObjectSafety (or use IObjectSafetyImpl if you're using ATL). Note that you shouldn't do that if your control really is unsafe - that is, it could cause damage to the registry or file system if whacky params are passed in. --Mike-- Just released - RightClick-Encrypt - Adds fast & easy file encryption to Explorer My really out-of-date homepage Sonork-100.19012 Acid_Helm
