Re: Off Topic/unwanted connection

I am running OE ver 4.72.3110.1 and have my security zones customized to
prevent automatic execution of Active-X and scripts.  This helps prevent
being jumped to a site without your approval.  The drawback is it also
affects your browser so you get alot of dialog boxes popping out asking if
it's ok to send you to another site.  You can find out more about this by
going to HELP / CONTENTS INDEX / MESSAGES, RUNNING ACTIVE CONTENT.
Good luck.
