Hi.
I'm unable to update Office 2003. Get the screen describing how to allow ActiveX, but...
Tried everything, nothing works. The yellow bar pops up and dissapares before you can blink.
This pussels me because everything else works perfect. It's only in Office update this happends.
Can anyone enlighten me here?
Thank you

That works, but the issue is automatic. It starts scanning, and then reports the need to install activeX, but I'm preventet from doing that.

Have you tried turning the popup stopper off when you go to windows /office update site?

Thank you all for trying to help.
Everything is tested as far as I know. Pop-up stoppers removed. Reinstalled Office. Intenet settings all to low etc.
The funny thing is that ActiveX installation is ok everywhere else.
Actually, I give up. I hvae no Idea where to look next for a possible solution.
