Cannot participate in a web conference if Script ActiveX controls is disabled (CR12619)
Users cannot participate in a web conference if the “Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting”
setting is disabled in the Internet Explorer | Internet Options | Security | Custom Settings.
Workaround: Change the parameter to allow it, or set the security level on web browser to “default” or
“medium” security. The MeetingPlace pages make calls into applets from JavaScript. While we do not
use ActiveX directly to do this, the browser uses the controls, and therefore the calls will not succeed
unless ActiveX is enabled.
