Post Re: Checking for Active X

Ok that's good but other then running that is there a manual way of checking it or turning it on or off in either browser.

Re: Checking for Active X

I use Firefox 99% of the time with NoScript, which makes it very safe.
NoScript - JavaScript/Java/Flash blocker for a safer Firefox experience! - what is it? - InformAction
I only allow sites that I trust with NoScript, like techsupportforum.com.
Otherwise, if I visit a site that needs javascript I'll "Temporally Allow".

Another good program to use is SpywareBlaster . Works with IE & Firefox.

Secure Browser Configuration

Adding Sites to the Trusted Zone in Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer 6: Setting Up Security Zones

Block ActiveX Controls - Internet Explorer 6 Security
