On some websites i get an error message which says:
"Your current security setting prohibit ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly."

In internet options i have 'download signed activeX controls' enabled and have put the following websites into the trusted websites: http://www.macromedia.com, http://fpdownload.macromedia.com, http://sdc.shockwave.com. But i still get the message.

I have Windows XP SP1, Internet Explorer 6, zone alarm, avast, superAntiSpyware and spywareBlaster.

I can't download SP2: my computer freezes if i try or if it does complete won't start again. But i hope this problem will be fixable even without SP2.

Help appreciated.

Edit: I downloaded Firefox and everything works fine. Though if anyone wants to offer a suggestion what's wrong with IE please do.
