"Click to activate" - Active X

Alright, I'm sure you guys know about that update that makes it so you have to click on flash and video files before you can do anything (pause, play, stop, skip, what have you).

And I know there's something I can download to get rid of this because I did it before. The other day my computer died and everything had to be replaced, so I obviously don't have that program anymore. I forget what it was called, where I got it, and etc, but I know 100% that there was something I downloaded in regards to this ActiveX activation nonsense that made it so I didn't have to do it anymore.

So do you guys know where I can get said download? Thanks

For some odd reason this has just randomly started happening to me also.

Literally randomly.

click the link under "Compatibility Patch for Internet Explorer for XP SP2"
