    Hi,

    I want firefox to allow this site to work. In IE I know that I have to enable the: "download unsigned ActiveX controls" in the security tab but I can't seem to get this function with firefox.
    Can anyone please help me? :confused:

    Most likely it doesn't work. Firefox doesn't support ActiveX.

    Email the website and tell them to make a proper website.

    You can download the IE Tab extension, which will render pages you specify using Internet Explorer inside a FireFox tab. It's great for situations like this, Windows Updates, and Microsoft sites.

    Only assign pages you know won't work in Firefox.
