Default Active X problem & SP2

My PC with SP2 refuses to allow the HP site to download and install an
active-ex script to check and see if I need updated software. HOW THE
$&*&^%$ bloody hell do I shut that damn thing off? I need this done. Do I
have to uninstall SP2 yet again to allow the HP site to install the script?

How do I get rid of these Sp2 pain in the ass security problems?

My PC is a HP w/W-XP Home/SP2 .

I'm the Owner Administrator of the PC and the only user.

TIA

FS~

in the top yellow alert area to allow the active x?

=====================
I did what the SP2 thing said and clicked on "allow active X" and that
doesn't work. How do I get rid of this warning Bar and stop it from
stopping these things from happening?

There was no MS SP2 window telling me to hold down left-control-key.
