Hi,

I am currently driving myself mad with this one.  I have a VS add-in
that has embedded in it a WebBrowser control that is running Java
applets (well actually a WebBrowser control inside anther control
inside the addin).  The problem is, is that every time the Java applet
tries to run I get the "To help protect your security,.... Click here
for options" and then I have to manually Allow Blocked Content.

Now here is the thing.  I open up the same control in a tstcon32
session and all is fine.  I open the same page (with embedded Java
applet) in a normal IE and all is fine.  As soon as the control sits
in msdev, it prompts for the security.

I have also tried using the http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/csEXWB.asp
to get a hold on ProcessUrlAction - I've tried running ALLOW for the
url in question but the behavior is to bring up a different security
banner which doesn't give you the option to allow blocked content.

I've also set the options/Environment/Add-in/Macros Security in the
msdev options to allow anything.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Those little things that eat up days!

Hah.
We finally fixed it.  Turns out it was to do with the html embedding
the applet.  We put in the "<!-- saved from url " tag and got rid of
the "codebase=" attribute and it now works.

Blimey.
