    Question ActiveX and weird behavior

    Hi all,

    I used to use the online malware scan service of www.ewido.net. It downloads an ActiveX to do the scan.

    Well.I installed Spybot. I run a full scan and then Spybot to fix all the problems addressed.

    Now, when I go to ewido web site and attempt to run a scan, the browser (IE6) closes without a message.

    The activeX seems to be installed, and the Tools>ActiveX shows the ActiveX as valid and with a big green checkmark


    The following is a shot of the Tools>>ActiveX window:

    {193C772A-87BE-4B19-A7BB-445B226FE9A1} (ewidoOnlineScan Control)
    DPF name:
    CLSID name: ewidoOnlineScan Control
    Installer:

    How can I do to be able to use that ActiveX again?

    Hello,

    Please run Spybot-S&D and select "Spybot-S&D" --> "Immunize" in the navigation bar on the left. There you will find a drop down menu. Please select "Ask for blocking confirmation". If you want to visit a blocked website choose "Allow". Hope this solves the problem. If this doesn't work please untick the checkbox and hit "Undo" in the same section of Spybot-S&D. But Warning: now the bad downloads won't be blocked any longer! Maybe you have to restart your computer now. Then try again to open the Ewido page.

    Best regards
    Sandra
