If you don't allow Active X controls to take over your computer, you
see nothing but a black screen.

Dump Active X BS.

I'm far from expert on such matters, but I don't think ActiveX is

It's simply a flash animation.

I'm far from expert on such matters, but I don't think ActiveX is
required at all: the presentation ran just fine here, on a Macintosh
running Netscape 4. AFAICT ActiveX is for Windows only.

(Thanks for the link, Wally!)

Or you can download the whole flash animation and watch it anytime...

It's a 3.2 Meg download.

Since I have control, and more than one 'puter (one with Linux) I've
got nothing to fear. Operating Systems don't scare me )

I use my machine for a lot of projects, and after what happened in 2001, I do
not allow anything on this machine that I can not control.

This goes for active
x, flash, etc. even my e-mail is set up to totaly destroy any attachments that
come in with .scr/.exe on them. Plus all scripting is disabled too.

If I get my TT030 back online, then it'll be 100% safe from virus,worms,etc.
An Atari?

I used flash one time to try it out, then deleted it from my system
and will never put it back on. My old Atari TT030 has better such
programs.

Once bitten huih?

I got a virus, once and only once. My own fault. I wanted to see what
it did, and let it install on an isolated PC..

Flash is small, simple, reliable and quite universal. I never have
encountered any problems with it, not did it affect any of my systems in a
negative way.
