I have noticed that some of you are hosting online versions of games using ActiveX and/or Flash, so I thought this link may be useful; as you may know, due to patent lawsuit MS had to add "control activation" feature to IE, which is nothing but annoyance to the end user. I stumbled upon this article which explains how to workaround this extra click:

Activating ActiveX Controls (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/dhtml/overview/activating_activex.asp)

Just a note, it is possible with a Flash extension I believe, to have it work normally(unless I missed you saying that).
