Security settings error message

Follow-up to: microsoft.public.outlook
OL 2002 SP3; Win XP SP1

When I go "New/Mail Message", I keep getting the message:
"Your current security settings prohibit running Activex controls on this
page. As a result, the page may not display correctly."
OL is set to insert a default signature (html) in every message.
AM I doing sonething wrong?
How do I fix it--1) on my computer?--2) so that is doesn;t give the same
problems potentially to recipients?
Tx,

I noticed I had my OL security settings set to "Restricted Sites" and
selected "Internet" instead.
So, that should do it.

I'm using OL 2003, and I tried what you suggested below, and changed the
Internet settings to low security and enabled all my ActiveX control items -
but it still won't show the images in a new email window - any ideas?

I am having the same problem as well - as are my colleagues.

I don't want to reset the security settings - outlook should not be creating
Activex objects in my new e-mails in the first place !

I don't know - but the problem seems to be related to how the signature is
created in the mail format section - for automatic signatures. When you use
anything other than outlook to create that signature (i.e. if you use Word or
Notepad and import or even copy/paste it back in) then everytime I create an
e-mail, the signature comes up with an Activex.

How do I stop this happening please

Hi

I am having this problem too. Has anyone resolved it yet??? I'm working with
Outlook 2003 and Office 2007 (word etc) - it's a work setup - why we don't
get Outlook 2007 to match, I dont know... but the problem only started when
they installed office 07.

Cheers
Sally

Sorry, Sal, but no change. I'm going to speak shortly to the guys that did
the signature logo for me to see if there's any way around the problem from
that side.

Does anyone have the solution for this activex problem. I also work with
outlook 2003 and word 2007

And i made new signatures, in word 2007. (because other editors give an inch
space between the lines). That doesn't help either. More than one signature
(emailaccounts) also topped working
