"Adobe SVG Viewer 3.01 addresses one potential security risk by 
disabling SVG scripts if you disable ActiveScripting in Internet 
Explorer. This security risk only affects customers who browse the Web 
on Windows computers in Internet Explorer with ActiveScripting disabled. 
By default, ActiveScripting is enabled, so most users are not currently 
at risk. Because of the way that the HTML OBJECT tag is implemented in 
Internet Explorer, Adobe SVG Viewer 3.01 cannot determine the URL of a 
file embedded with the OBJECT tag. The URL is required to determine the 
security zone, which is required to determine the state of the 
ActiveScripting setting. Therefore, to fail safe against this potential 
security flaw Adobe SVG Viewer 3.01 always disables scripting when it 
determines that the SVG file is embedded using the OBJECT tag. When 
authoring in SVG, Adobe recommends that you not use the OBJECT tag and 
instead use the EMBED tag when embedding SVG in HTML pages."
