Security problems

I am running Microsoft Windows XP and when I tray to install a mass storage USB device I have this message:
An ActiveX control on this page is not safe. Your current security settings prohibit running unsafe controls on this page. As a result, this page may not display as intended
Can somebody help?
Thank you,

Re: Security problems

Do it in FireFox and the problem will go. :)

Re: Security problems

A yellow bar should appear at the top of the application. If you right click on it, it should give you an option to allow the active x to run.

Otherwise try using the administrator account

Re: Security problems

Either make sure to add an allow rule for Internet Explorer to access that page, or just switch to the far less annoying Firefox browser.

Re: Security problems

I fall else fails, revert to Opera. For some reason everything just works in Opera. From my experience, it also has the least browser compatibility issues. Correct me if I am wrong?
