-{ Quote: "what is it" }-It's a Search Toolbar

I checked my active X settings and set them to promt instead of Enable.

I have it setup like this: download signd active x controls Prompt
Download unsigned active x controls Disable
Initialize and script not marked safe Disable
Run active x controls and plugins Prompt
Script active x controls marked safe Enable

Is this good Bubba. any suggestions?
