Mine is fixed!

after 4 days with emails to Microsoft, i was sent a fix.zip file and I
installed that and my Active X works!! I would gladly send the file if anyone
else thinks they can use it! I now see my Add/Remove Programs and I can
download. I received this message today from Microsoft:
<<fix.zip>>

Thanks for the email. I did intensive research today and discussed this
issue with our colleagues. Finally, we found the solution. Please save the
file fix.zip to your hard disk and extract the file fix.reg. Double click
fix.reg to merge the information into the registry. Restart the machine to
see if this issue stops. Thank you.

(Now, if you can tell me how to get you the fix.zip file it may help a lot.)

As it is a .reg file you can right click on it, select edit, copy the text,
and paste it in response to this (or another) message so that you're
actually pasting the contents.

Example formating might be...

Start copy/paste below this line

<insert the body of the registry file>

End copy/paste above this line, save in notepad, rename to fix.reg, double
click the fix.reg file and merge when prompted.

I don't understand exactly how to open the file..I am not too sure what I am
doing. I see the file in C but when I click to open it just asks if I want it
to change the registery. Perhaps I can send the zip file to someone else and
they may know how to post it. I will try to the address below...

I will send you the fix.zip file that fixed my computer. I have Windows 2000
so I hope it works with all. Perhaps you could post it somehow here..I don't
understand how to do it!

alright guys, if you are having trouble with activex it is due to patch
KB896688. I uninstalled it and the other patches that came after it in
chronological order(the ones that it said it would break). If you cannot get
this "fix.zip" and don't know how to uninstall it, email me and I will help
you fix it. gigabite1123(at)hotmail.com
whatiswrongnow, can you please send me the zip file through email so I can
see what they are changing?
