Not getting prompted to install ActiveX Control?!?!

I've read through several posts here, and even tried to install the activex
control myself (which it seemed to do, but doesn't seem to work).

Here is the situation...
I can get to my Remote Desktop Web Screen, but when I click on connect I get
an error (lower right hand part of IE), which is "Invalid procedure call or
agrument". I've tried from other computers, and can connect successfully, so
I know it is just this PC.

The problem seems to be it never prompts me to install the ActiveX Control
into IE (which iti did on the other systems I tried).

Is there someway to forcibly install the control into IE?

Thanks,
Dave Green
