First, I am very glad to hear of extended browser support.

But also, I have to say that I haven't seen any messages relating
to ActiveX at the InfoCenter site for the past month or so.
Further, I cannot say if ActiveX was ever in use at InfoCenter.

I can only say that I used to get the warning pop-up message
boxes that stated "Do you want to allow software such as ActiveX
controls and plugins to run? <yes/no>" followed by "A script is
accessing some software (an ActiveX control) on this page which
has been marked safe for scripting. Do you want to allow this?
<yes/no>"

It is certainly possible that IE would throw up those message
boxes under circumstances other than ActiveX being used. They
could have come because of an unusual combination of preferences
that I had set for myself or from the various W2K fix packs I had
installed or who knows?

Wherever they came from, they're certainly gone now.
