Ok, I didn't think it was a problem when it happened first, but I'ts really bugging me now... IE8 is another step in the right direction for MS but it still manages to get on and jump around on my nerves... the thing I'm referring to now is the fact that it's smart enough to block activex installations and the like... but doesn't even give you a clue as to where it's coming from.. If i'm on site A, an activex installation may not have been requested by that site, possibly by a ad, in which case it's gotta stay blocked... what if not? Let us know!!!!
