you are a few months late with this knowledge :)
search google, this forum, any forum, any blog - this has been top news for months and discussed way
too many times in this forum alone - many veterans here are too tired to respond to threads
regarding this IE active content issue. Search google for "Active Content" for millions of returns.
Adobe.com has pages devoted to it as well as Microsoft and elsewhere.

I have not played around with the new flash player much, but I am using IE with
the new version 9 plugin. It puts a white box around every place that is flash
on a web page. It looks horrible. Every page that used to look good with some
flash tucked away in the page now looks horrible. THey need to fix this! It
even has some kind of tag saying.... Click your spacebar or enter to activate
this control. Annoying as ever!!! I hope they fix this, or people will stop
using it.
Oh god .. here we go again...
This is due to Microsoft IE changes required to avoid infringing the
(stupid) EOLAS patent. It applies to all Active-X control that can interact
with the user.
It has nothing to do with Flash Player itself. There is nothing for
Adobe/Macromedia to 'fix' in the player .. its a 'feature' of Internet
Explorer, not of Flash Player.
If you are viewing a web site, you cannot really do anything to fix it,
except complain to the web master
Here is a link to find information on how to fix your website to cope with
the Active-X active content changes:
