Ok, what do you suggest?  She's obviously not going to learn not to press "yes" to ActiveX (or DirectX, if our plans here go through...), so what's next? 
Then she's broken.
I have a programming folder, and I have nothing of value there

Running with Code has a new home!

Our species really annoys me.

You all might want to listen very carefully. I have not done this for a long time past, nor will I do it again for a long time in the future:  say Microsoft did something right.

Yup. They clearly tell you how risky ActiveX controls can be (I think its a little overdone, actually) and ask you if you're absolutely sure you want to run it before it actually does.

I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.
