That's one of the things I never have enabled, ie Active X, don't have Java enabled either. I miss out on some content but I don't get hit with so much crap either so it sort of balances out. I know exactly what they're looking for Erlik and they're not going to get it as long as I can help it. Another cool thing I've got is a motherboard which sets off an alarm if anything tries to write to the bios, so I would definately know if someone who's not me tries to change anything. 8) Catlin
