ActiveX

[offworldkatz]

I am trying to embed a video(player) on my webpage. I am using the same code that I use for my 'other hosts' page. Everything works fine except when the video plays on my webpage, my Norton's gives me an ActiveX alert.
When I use the same code on my 'other hosts' page , or even the page where I got the code from, I get NO ActiveX warnings from Norton's. I would assume that many people are running Norton's and will also get these warnings, witch will deter them from continuing on with my webpage.

Does anybody know what these other sites are doing that I am not?

Here is the embed part of the code I am using:

<embed name='RAOCXplayer' src='http://www.videocodezone.com/videos/d/delerium/after_all_featuring_jael_185216.asx' type='application/x-mplayer2' width='500' height='300' autoplay='true' ShowControls='1' ShowStatusBar='0' loop='true' EnableContextMenu='0' DisplaySize='2' pluginspage='http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/Downloads/Contents/Products/MediaPlayer/'>
</embed>

Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks:confused:

I believe you can turn off the Norton Alert for individual sites. I would assume that you have done this in the past and as a result you don't get the alert.
I certainly wouldn't be happy if a site used ActiveX controls and could bypass the alert.

Yes, but somehow these other sites are playing the video without using the activex controls that set off the warnings.
I am wondering how they do that. Is there a server side media player(would that even work)?
