Running on *Windows XP* and Internet Explorer prevents you from running the unit tests? If you are using Windows XP with Service Pack 2, you may not be able to run the tests unless you enable active content. If the website you are testing has active content, the IE browser will "block" the content. To enable active content perform the following: 1. From the browser, select Tools > Internet Options 2. Select the Advanced tab 3. Under Security, check "Allow active content to run in files 4. on My Computer" Click OK There is more information on this page <http://www.winxptutor.com/lmzunlock.htm>.
