Unsafe ActiveX control when trying to use Help and Support Center - XP Pro SP2
I'm having trouble with printer sharing (another issue). When I go to the Help and Support Center, File and Printer Sharing Troubleshooter, I get an IE message - "An ActiveX control on this page is not safe. Your current security settings prohibit running unsafe controls on this page. As a result, this page may not display as intended." I can go no further in the troubleshooter. I have checked my IE security settings and can see nothing obvious. I found a reference for a fix, but it ws not for SP2. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
try this:
Start > Run rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSectio n DefaultInstall 132 C:\windows\inf\ie.inf

Start > Run rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSectio

Thanks to both. The first 2 suggestions did not work. sramesh2k's idea did work.
Right click on C:\windows\inf\ie.inf and select Install
