Microsoft pollutes Javascript by adding ActiveX controls. Microsoft
finds that ActiveX is a problem.
My understanding is that Microsoft gives a warning when it see
javascript. It should give a warning the first time it see ActiveX
content or implement Javacript per standard thus disallowing ActiveX
controls.
It's anti-competitive because they are labeling Javascript as the
problem when it is the Microsoft ActiveX additions that are the problem.
Firefox works fine one the same html file.
