    There is a foreign chat forum which my friend accesses via my PC. A member who uses the forum can have their own personal "Blockâ€. A member’s block can receive pictures and messages. However, when she tries to open the comments section of the block a box appears which says" Click to run an activex control on this webpageâ€.

    When this box is clicked on the whole page freezes and the computer has to be switched off.


    THANKS
