Hi petersmyth,

Welcome at Wilders.

Probably because you take good care of it and don't accept ActiveX.
Nothing wrong with your log.

Regards,

Pieter

 

Hi Pieter thanks but what am I missing by not accepting Active X Or put another way what are the advantages of not accepting ActiveX. ........Peter

 

Hi petersmyth ,

What you are missing is programs running locally on your computer triggered by Internet Explorer (if you use that)
There are some useful ones: Windows update, Macromedia, Quicktime, some online scanners, banks and providers use ActiveX.
But there are also a lot of them that sneakily install spyware, dialers and crapware in general on your PC.

Normally these are listed under O16 in HijackThis, but yours show none, hence my remark. (you did post the entire log, didn't you?)

Regards,

Pieter

 

Yep Pieter that was the entire log. I use Opera for all my online browsing except Banking, funny you mentioned that, and because my online bank doesn't support Opera I have to use IE to access it. BTW I use the same bank on and offline so you see my problem.

Now I know why there's a few niggly things I can't do online by not accepting ActiveX. If I decide I need it how do I activate it again for certain downloads. As for the M/S updates, my Win 98se o/s has been pensioned off

 

Hi petersmyth,

The easiest way is to add your bank and other sites where you need ActiveX to your Trusted Sites (and only if you really trust them).
Where Win98 may be retired IE6 is not and you have not installed SP1 yet.

Regards,

Pieter
