What is ActiveX? ActiveX is a technology that allows software components to communicate with one another in a networked environment independently of the programming language with which they were developed. Microsoft developed ActiveX with the intention of creating a standard based on Component-Object-Model (COM). ActiveX is mainly used to develop interactive elements for web applications – although it can also be used for desktop applications. ActiveX control elements can be embedded in web pages in order to permit highly developed applications and interactive objects. 1. In order to check the settings for ActiveX scripting functions, scroll downwards and if

required adapt the following options:
