Active X controls

[SL]

I am getting the message "Your current security settings prohibit running AciveX controls on this page. As a result the page may not display correctly".

I have recently transferred my database from a laptop to my new PC. The laptop had no CD writer and the PC has no floppy drive, so I tried e-mailing them, which seemed to work fine. I can open the databases on the PC, but when I select an artist in the tree view the ActiveX message appears. I can open the artist folder (by clicking the + symbol) and view the album information fine. I can't view the screen where all albums by one artist are displayed.

I've tried re-entering some CDs in a new database, and this message doesn't appear. Will I need to re-enter all of my collection (hopefully no!) or is there some way around this?

Any suggestions? My laptop used Windows 98 and the new PC uses XP.

This problem may be caused by some third-party security program that protects your computer by disabling ActiveX controls. To fix this, you need to run RegEdit.exe from the Run prompt and open the following registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones\0

In this key, double-click the "1200" value and change it to "0".

Then repeat the same in this registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones\0

After that, you may need to restart your computer for setting to take effect.
