    IE6 Security Settings....

    Could you please tell me what the below IE6 Security setting should be set to?
    1) ActiveX controls and plug-ins.
    2) Scripting.
    Thank you.

    The true test of character is not how much we
    know how to do, but how we behave when we don't know what to do

    hmmm--I confess to not having read the bleedingcomputer's recommendation. I personally set "Run ActiveX controls and plugins" at Disable. Then when I find a site, like Windows Update, that needs ActiveX to run and which I trust, I put the site into Trusted Sites. (Uncheck the box "Require Server verification...")

    I strongly recommend ScriptSentry as described in jmtjet's link. Don't leave home without it.

    Double Ditto on Script Sentry....saves bacon, and doesn't use system resources at all.
