Internet Explorer is asking me security questions. What should I reply?
Internet Explorer often behaves strangely if security settings are not set to the default level of "Medium". Instructions for resetting your security settings to the default level are described in the section on "JavaScript". Depending on how the security settings in Microsoft's Internet Explorer™ are configured, PrivacEmail users may be prompted to answer a few security questions.
Answer, "Yes" when asked the following questions. Answering, "No" to these questions will result in functionality problems.
- "Scripts are usually safe. Do you want to allow scripts to run?"
Click "Yes"
- "Do you want to allow scripts to access Java applets?"
Click "Yes"
A bug in Microsoft's Internet Explorer™ prompts the following dialogue boxes.
The bug causes Internet Explorer™ to think PrivacEmail's Java applet is an Active X control. PrivacEmail does not use ActiveX controls.
- "A script is accessing some software (an ActiveX control) on this page which has been marked safe for scripting. Do you want to allow this?"
Click "Yes"
- "A script is accessing some software (an ActiveX control) on this page which has been marked safe for scripting. Do you want to allow this?"
Click "Yes"
Internet Explorer also occasionally raises the following error without reason.
- "This page contains both secure and non-secure items. Do you want to display the non-secure items."
Click "Yes" – It will NOT compromise your security.
Customized security settings may cause other issues. If are having difficulties, it’s always a good idea to try setting your security level to "Medium".
