Have you scanned your system for viruses and spyware?

Have you downloaded all the Windows and Internet Explorer updates from Microsoft?

Also please be aware that there are other web browsers around apart from Internet Explorer, like Opera, Firefox, or even Avant, some have plugins for ActiveX controls exen support them natively.
