If the CD is from a reliable source or if you get this message fwhile opening a trested site, then it is okay to run active content. Generally you get this message because active contents are the major means to spread virus.

I did not choose to runn active content. as a result, the data in IE on the cd with links did not open. now what is active content? how could it harm my system? is it ok to ignore the warning and go ahead with running active content? any other information which is helpful to know in this context is welcomed. thanks To unsubscribe send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the subject unsubscribe.
