No more click to activate in IE
Dec 13
You heard right, internet explorer will be updated to remove the “functionality” where you needed to click on activeX object before being able to use them.
If you don’t recall, in April 2006, we made a change to how Internet Explorer handled embedded controls used on some webpages. Some sites required users to “click to activate” before they could interact with the control. Microsoft has now licensed the technologies from Eolas Technologies inc, removing the “click to activate” requirement in Internet Explorer.
Even if it was easy to work around it. It is still cool for the end user, because not all the sites had the fix applied.
To bad this update fixes only a minor issue…and not the major issue the browser is.
