one or more activex controls could not be displayed

[davidhq]

Hi,

I'm using 3.3.2 beta (build 29806) 32-bit on my Win7 64bit... I occasionally get the window with the message from the subject.. I click ok and it's gone. but it's annoying anyway...

I can vouch for that. Running same OS and client, also getting it. No other utorrent client does it. It's due to the ads running on the left pane. Here's the message in full:

Web Browser

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 a publisher of one of the controls.

As a result, the page might not display correctly.

It's due to the ads running on the left pane.

Turn them off, see if it stops.

There are several threads explaining how.

Coolness. Quick search provided the answer. Thanks! :cool:

Help doesn't say anything about this error.

changing "spon" to false & "plus" to false under advanced does not resolve the issue either.

the ads are gone however the error about active x remains.

any other ideas?

here I fixed the error - all I care about is

- that torrents download

- I don't have to click a button each time I switch to the utorrent window

thus I changed all of these values and one of them worked...

gui.enable_comments = false

gui.enable_ratings = false

gui.report_problems = false

gui.show_devices = false

gui.show_notorrents_node = false

gui.show_upsell = false

ipfilter.enable = false

offers.left_rail_offer_enabled = false

offers.sponsored_torrent_offer_enabled = false

rss.feed_as_default_label = false

rss.smart_repack_filter = false

sys.enable_wine_hacks = false

I used to click on the ads, so probably in utorrent's best interest to actually fix the problem...

Actually, these that matter are:

offers.left_rail_offer_enabled = false

offers.sponsored_torrent_offer_enabled = false

but thanks

Thank you I'm hoping that this is exactly what I was looking for

These changes to the preferences are not working for me, any other explanation?
