Windows XP with Service Pack 2 with Internet Explorer 5.5 or above, which

Modify IE Security Settings
You must modify the IE security settings to enable ActiveX. Based on the IP
address of your KVM/net and the method you want to configure Internet
Explorer, select an Internet zone from the “Security” tab in the IE’s “Internet
Options” menu. This could be “Internet”, “Local Intranet”, or “Trusted Sites”.
If you select "Trusted Sites", ActiveX controls are already enabled, you
simply add the IP address of the KVM/net to the list of trusted sites.
If You select “Internet” or "Local Intranet", there is no need to add the IP
address of the KVM/net to the "Trusted Sites", as long as the ActiveX
controls are enabled.
Note: “Trusted Sites” is the most secure option. Choosing “Internet” or “Local
Intranet” option affects all hosts that you can access.
The following procedures describe the IE modification options.
T To Modify “Trusted Sites” Settings
1. From the Internet Explorer menu bar, select Tools > Internet Options >
Security Tab.
The Security form appears.
2. From the Security tab in the Internet Options select Trusted Sites.
