Default Explorer 7

Running XP Home SP3. Updated Anti-virus, Antispam and Firewall.
On opening Explorer a pop-up kept popping up!

"This page has an unspecified potential security risk. Would you like to
continue?"

As soon as the page has loaded it stops, but as soon as one tries to move to
somewhere else it starts again. I have run deep anti-virus scan and antispam
without getting any negative results.
Please help, any suggestions appreciated.
Jules.

I had the same problem and in fact posted right above you.
I figured it out. Go to tools - internet options - security - custom level
scroll down to 'run ActiveX controls and plug-ins' and check enable.
It now works perfect for me.
Good luck
Rick

Thanks Rick, unfortunately what seemed like a simple solution had no effect.
Am still struggling to use the net, by constantly pressing return to
continue loading.
Any other suggestions?
