How to Install the Facebook Photo Upload Tool on IE 7 With ActiveX
The social networking site Facebook allows users to share pictures of themselves and their friends or family members with others on their friends list. As it can take up to several minutes for the pictures to fully upload, Facebook introduced the photo upload tool, which lets you upload several photos at once and makes the process move faster. The photo upload tool requires ActiveX and works with both Firefox and multiple versions of Internet Explorer.
