Configuring Internet Explorer

To use the KCM ComposerUI ActiveX controls on a client, the following options must be enabled in Internet Explorer:

  • Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins

  • Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting

The options must be enabled for the zone where the KCM ComposerUI server is located. Depending on this zone, the options could already be enabled by default. The options can be applied manually, or centralized through domain policies or the Internet Explorer Administration Kit.

If these options are not enabled, the ActiveX controls are either be blocked completely or the user is prompted interactively for permission every time they are used.

Depending on the deployment method, additional options may have to be enabled to install the ActiveX control before it can be used. These options are described in the appropriate sections.

KCM ComposerUI does not require the following option and we recommend that you keep it disabled:

  • Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe.
