- Display the Tools menu and select Internet Options.
- In the Internet Options dialog box, click Security .
- Click on Default Level.
- Click on OK.
- Consult the documentation with your internal IT department for the anti-virus program or firewall that they are using to determine how to turn on scripting, ActiveX and Java applets.
