Well, I just reinstalled IE 8 for a third time. I have one or two applications that normally open web pages that will not open the page when IE 8 is installed! So I will probably uninstall it again soon.

I still have a "Manage Add-ons" in the Tools menu. If you do not have this, perhaps it is because you currently do not have any Add-ons installed. If you go to a web page that requires an add-on, like WindowsUpdate.com, an alert in the Information Bar should be announced. It will say an ActiveX control is required and must be installed. Press Alt + n to place focus in the Information Bar. It should repeat the announcement. Press Space to activate the control an bring up a context menu. Arrow to the Install or Allow option and press Enter.

Hello Don.

Thanks for answering my email yesterday. I'm sorry that I haven't been able too get back too you sooner then today. I did try the suggestions that you gave me, but I didn't see anything in there under tools in internet explorer 8, in mannaging add ons for enabling active x control. If you, or anyone else has further suggestions on how to turn on this type of control functionality, I would appreciate it. Thanks for helping me,

Al

I am not sure how to give you specific directions, but I can give you a couple of leads.

1. Go to the Tools menu (Alt + t). Arrow down to the "Manage Add-ons..." (a), then select "Enable or Disable Add-ons..." (e). You might need to investigate a little to check if the Add-on you are interested in is enabled.

2. Make sure that ActiveX and other Add-ons are not disabled under the security tab of the Internet Options.


Let me know if you need more specific help.
