Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has had any problems with active X control recently. I have been having a problem where I cant update my windows xp from the Microsoft website because my active X is not working properly and I also cannot stream any movies with windows media player. I am just assuming this has to do with active X because these problems occurred at the same time and neither has gone away. I have no clue as to what is wrong with my active X, I have checked in the tools/internet option/security folders and all of my active X controls are enabled so that’s not the problem. It may have to do with my gfx driver, I think this happened right around the time that the most recent catalyst driver came out (just incase this is a known issue with this driver). I have asked all my friends and no one can seem to fix it and I'm no computer genius. If anyone can solve this problem I would be greatly appreciative. On another note, I recently signed up at some website for a free ipod. It’s the whole deal with getting 5 other people to sign up and then you get your free product. At first I was very skeptical (I was told about it by a friend) but I checked out the website and some actual news reports that were done on it by CNN and it seemed legitimate. So I signed up and completed the offer (which asked me to pay $1.00 for some kind of Canadian Tire gift card). Bottom line is that so far it has all worked smoothly and my credit card was only charged $1.00 so they didn’t fraud me on that. I am just asking for you guys to check it out, read the news reports and make your own decisions on it. If you do deicide to sign up please refer me at http://ipods.freepay.com/?r=21756704 (all you have to do is create your account at that link and it gives me credit. If this really does work it’s a great offer and everyone should take advantage of it. Thanks in advance for your help and support.
