This adds further irony to the blurb about enabling scripting and

   If you are on a Web site that you trust (in this case, Windows
   Update), and the ActiveX Control is provided by a publisher you 
   trust (in this case, Microsoft), it is safe to click Yes in the 
   dialog box to accept the certificate and allow the control to be 
   installed.

"Publisher you trust"??? - just check - http://www.guninski.com/signedactivex2.html
