I'm using winXP, IE6, Norton 2002, Maya PLE. When I do a search in the Library, internet explorer tells me an ActiveX control on the page is unsafe. I click yes to proceed and Norton tells me a malicious script is detected and recommends not to go on.

Any of you experience this?

It's just the search script used in the help files. Alias addreses this issue in the help files, and says that it won't harm your system. So no worries.

Where in the help files does it talk about it?
