All reports so far seems to indicate this IE warning was a false
alert.
"Jason M. Taylor" <jtaylor@precisioncs.net>:
I tested it on a Windows 98 SE box running IE 5.00.2614.3500 and got the
following, "Exception while fetching
image:com.ms.security.SecurityExceptionEx[example0.action]: cannot
connect to "www.microsoft.com"". The security was set to Medium. All of the updates on the Windows Update site at Microsoft have been applied
to the box as well.

I have IE 5.00.2916.6307 [i don't think that's 5.01 but i upgraded to it, go
figure...] running on Win 98 and it didn't work.
"PrairieWeb Support" <support@prairieweb.com:
This does not work on Windows 2000 IE 5.00.2920.0000 or 5.00.2920.0016 .
