First, open your Internet Explorer(for this, I am using IE version 7)..
Next, click on Tools on the menu bar and then click on Internet Options,,, as shown in the next screenshot....


Now go back to the Internet Options dialog box by clicking on the Tools tab and choose "Internet Options".... After which click on the Security tab.... Then click on the "Internet" icon.
Under the section "Security level for this zone" there is a slider.... this slider represents the level of security that is currently activated for your internet....(Feel free to slide the slider up or down to view the different security measures it will do under different levels of security)...Other than the slider... you can also click on the "Custom level" button just below the slider to better customise what actions your web browser will do to protect your computer....


After testing out that function.... go back and remove the website that you have added, if necessary, if not; go back to the "Internet Options" dialog box and click on the Privacy tab and you will see something to the screenshot below>>>>>

After doing that, you are done.....finished......
REFLECTIONS!!!!!!!
From this practical, I have learnt that "ActiveX" is a framework for defining resuable software components in a programming language independent way. I have also learnt that "ActiveX controls" can also be found in other browsers other than Internet Explorer.I have also learnt that though ActiveX is good, but it also poses as a security problem to us. As we download the various ActiveX controls, some of them might be malwares that havve been disguised as ActiveX controls.Thus, we should always be careful of what we download...
