ActiveX Controls ?

When i Start up Crossfire and the first "Banner" comes up to Start game , i get the Following error:
One or more ActiveX Controls Could not be displayed Because either:
1) Your Current Security Settings Prohibit Running activeX controls on this page OR
2) You Have Blocked the Publisher of 1 of the controls ,
Any Help please ?

  • I don't recall there being any ActiveX controls associated with this game. You might want to do a full spyware scan first and see if that resolves the problem.
  • I'm having the same issue and I know my comp is prime. No spyware, now malware, no virus! I keep up on maintenance, so whats the issue.
  • the launcher uses an IE frame, and the activex error is probably related to the flash objects it (stupidly) has in the page that it loads

    start the game using patcher_cf.exe, that will skip the launcher

    ok how do you do that
  • Buzzer seems to know what hes talking about, but either way I'll give you two options to try and fix the problem:

    Option 1:

    Find "patcher_cf.exe" by going to My computer, then C:\ProgramsandFiles(x86)\z8games\Crossfire\patcher_cf (or just C::\ProgramsandFiles(x86)\z8games\Crossfire\patcher_cf)

    Option 2:

    Utilize the program CCleaner to uninstall crossfire, and clean out the registry of its existence.

    Delete the Crossfire Folder in MyDocuments.
    Delete the Z8games Folder in C:\ProgramsandFiles(x86) - or just C:\ProgramsandFiles

    Find Run.exe on your computer - RUN.
    Type in: msconfig
    Select the Services Tab, check "Hide all Microsoft Services", everything that appears in the list needs to be unchecked.
    Now select the Startup Tab and uncheck everything.
    Next, select Apply and click ok. Restart the computer.
    Restart The Computer.

    Turn off all AntiVirus/the Firewall.

    Download a new Install Client from Z8games, install the game. Run it as Administrator.
