Does the computer-in-question belong to you or your employer or school?
What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current?
Has a(nother) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on this
machine (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?

Thanks for your response.
Computer belongs to me
Avast! version 4.8 Home Edition subscription current /SpyBot 1.6.2.0
Norton Antivirus 2004 was pre-installed and was long ago removed.
I tried disabling Avast! on-access and SpyBot the results are the same, also
tried safe-mode.

Did you ever download/run the Norton Removal Tool?

It was so long ago, I don't recall. I actuall think I did a clean install
with my own copy of XP Pro and never restored the factory av software because
Norton is always trouble.
The security settings used to be accessible because I configure the machine
at one time to allow me to run Active X controls locally.
Could we explore some other possibilities?

You're most welcome & thanks for your feedback.
QED: How did it get disabled to begin with?
