I won prize machine

I have noticed that since I installed the sp2, that I have not been able to
play the I Won Prize Machine. I keep getting a page saying that there should
be a yellow bar so that I can install the activex control, but no bar
appears. When I try to download the file that comes up when I click on the
"If you are having problems downloading, click here" I get an install has
failed message. Is any one else having trouble with this, or found a
solution to this?

Your problem is quite simply that the Iwon system is regarded as spyware (of
some of the worst kind) - and will not work properly under SP2 unless you
reduce your security settings to the point where the spyware functions
again - I would recommend uninstalling IWon, and running AdAware, and SpyBot
S&D afterwards, to see what else they find!!
