Internet Explorer restricts web page from showing active content

R

Roger

I receive the following message when I preview a web page with Internet
Explorer
version 6:

"To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this file
from showing active content that could access your computer. Click here for
options..."

I only get this message if I use a template with buttons or if I add a
button to a blank web page. This only happens on computers with Windows XP
service pack 2 installed.

Is there a way to work around this problem without reconfiguring Internet
Explorer? Note: I upgraded to FrontPage 2003 service pack 1.

No, sorry. This is a security feature in IE, nothing can be done via
FrontPage.

You can put the "mark of the web" on each page and this will stop it (google
that phrase if you are not familiar with it).

No, it's Internet explorer blocking whatever it is you're trying to do
therefore you have to adjust your settings. (probably it's Service Pack 2
in XP at work).
