How to Repair an ActiveX Error
The Internet Explorer Web browser uses ActiveX to display multimedia, interactive content on Web pages. The types of interactive content include videos, audio files, advertisements and flash gaming. Without ActiveX, this content will not display, potentially slowing down or halting the loading of the Web page. When problems occur with ActiveX, messages will display informing the user of such problems. You can alter Internet Explorer to fix ActiveX and stop these messages.
