ActiveX is the bane of IE users' lives, which is why lots of us prefer to use another browser like Opera, Firefox or Chrome, all of which are far superior to IE.

If you want to carry on using IE, you can change the default settings...

Click on Tools, Internet Options, then the Security tab. Click on the Internet globe at the top of the window, then on the Custom level button. Scroll down to the ActiveX controls and plug-ins heading and Disable the entry for Automatic prompting for ActiveX controls. Click on OK to close the window, then Apply and OK.

That will stop most of the popups, but you'll still be prompted on certain sites.
