I'm curious--gIven that ie was deliberately altered by Microsoft to
behave as it does concerning embedded active content so as not to infringe
on the Eolas patent--what type of ie update might be expected? -Tom Unger

I know this subject has been covered before , but does any one know if there is
an update yet for IE to prevent the "Click to activate" appearing every time. I
am giving one of my web sites a complete make over using just flash but every
time you go from one page to another you get the same message. Its obviously a
put off to any visitor.
Thanks in advance.:sad;

You may also want to check your spelling... here is the corrected version of
your message:

Then code your HTML so you don't get the message. its not hard to do ..
take [responsibility] for making your web pages work correctly with the
[platforms] on which they are used, and stop looking for other people to solve
your problems and talking about legal action etc. Just get on with the job
of [designing] and implementing web pages

There is no auction they could take. I fail to see how monopolies law could
even remotely apply to this.

It seems you simply don't understand what the change is, or why it was made.
Do some homework.

The update was made to force that change .. its deliberate and not a bug, so
there is nothing to 'fix' in an update.

It is highly unlikely that that will change unless there is a late major
change in the patent decision that force MS to do this.

Well .. you didn't actually ask for help. You asked if there is an update
that addresses it. And as you've been told here by a couple of us already
... There isn't.

The click to activate 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.

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:
