when you open a Web page that must download an ActiveX control in Microsoft
Internet Explorer, you receive the following message in the Information Bar:
RESOLUTIONTo resolve this problem, right-click the Information Bar,
and then click Install ActiveX Control. You then receive a
prompt to download the ActiveX control. STATUS This
behavior is by design. MORE INFORMATIONYou cannot bypass the Information Bar unless your
ActiveX control is pre-installed on the computer. You receive a modal dialog
box the first time this behavior occurs. This modal dialog box explicitly calls
your attention to the new feature. Web software developers can include detailed instructions on the Web page that must download the ActiveX control. Web software developers can also include screen shots that show users how to download the control. REFERENCESFor more information about new features in Windows XP SP2,
