How to Turn on Active X in Firefox
Microsoft created Active X for the Internet Explorer browser to properly play various types of media. Although the tool was designed specifically for Internet Explorer, when using Firefox, you will sometimes come across a website instructing you to install Active X to view media properly. For that reason, Mozilla has created a plug-in that will allow Active X to be enabled in Firefox.
