Everything is marked either prompt or disable except these....


Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins: Enable

Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting: Enable

Active scripting: Enable

Allow paste operations via script: Enable

Scripting of Java applets: Enable


Should I set the first one to prompt instead?
You should NEVER have "run activex controls" set to enable.... sites can just do as they please with your system the moment you hit them. They can essentially take full control!

Anything to do with active x should be by prompt only.
