>Since the latest upgrades of IE, I always get this "Click to activate and use this control" whenever there is a Flash on a page. How can this be turned off?
Hi Michel,
You can't, I believe. MS had to change the way ActiveX controls are implemented and displayed in IE, due to a patent infringement case that they lost.
