Yes, but you have to edit the intermet options advanced tab in Inermet
explorer. There are several different options for turning off Active X
(look through the entire list) But it's a pain when you surg with IE--always
gettung asked to run the crap.
I woul upgrade to IE 5.5 -- it replaces outlook as well.
