An Activex Control On This Page Might Be Unsafe To Interact With Other Parts Of The Page
security settings do I need to change for this? Actually your security settings are set correctly as ActiveX controls shouldn’t be used for emails. What is happening here is that somewhere when composing the email these ActiveX controls were added to the email. Assuming that you are the composer of the email, the most likely cause is that you are using Word as your email editor or have created your email signature in Word. Certain advanced text effects are achieved in Word by the use of ActiveX controls. Another possibility is that you have installed an add-in in Word which modified your normal.dot file which is also being used when creating an email in Outlook 2003 or previous when using Word as your email editor.

When I try and open emails from specific users I get the following message:
One or more ActiveX controls could not be displayed because either: 1. Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX control on this page, or 2. You have blocked a publisher of one of the controls. As a result, the page might not display https://www.msoutlook.info/question/210 correctly. And then you click OK. Once I click OK the Signature of the person who sent the message appears. Does anyone know how to "fix" it so that I don't get this message each time I open an email from this person? thanks Wednesday, August 15, 2012 6:02 PM Reply | Quote Answers 0 Sign in to vote Hi Chandra, The message you got is to help https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/db601565-e912-40cd-8767-7c8b247d2c32/microsoft-outlook-2003-activex-control-message?forum=outlook protect you from viruses that might be contained in HTML-format and RTF-format messages, both scripts and ActiveX controls contained in these kinds of messages are deactivated automatically.
