your sysadmin has probably made these settings on you. I run a local
coldFusion webserver to develop against and don't get this error because
my browser is config'd not to do so.

the sysadmin msy have locked it on you so you can't change it=20
(for IE: tools ->internet options->security(tab)->custom level(button))

I figured out what it was.

IE throws the ActiveX warning if you call the XmlHttpRequest object
from a page served from your localhost.

Since, I was running my webserver on the same computer, it was giving
me the warning.

When I ran it from an external computer, it was fine.

Thanks.
