if you have internet explorer you most likely have experienced "click to activate" for active content such as flash (like the video guides we have in the guides)
active content? flash? awuhzuh?! so you know how sometimes you goto a web site and theres stuff that moves, fades, plays music, video, etc.... and sometimes when you put the mouse over it, a grayish border appears around the flash content... then you click it... and then you can click on something within the flash movie
thats "click to activate" -- for instance on a music player that does not have click to activate fixed, if you goto press pause, you click the pause button... it doesnt pause... why? because that first click was to actually activate the flash content
does this bug you? or would it just be a lil nicer if you didnt have to double click flash content the first time? especially considering that flash content so so common now a days.
NOTE: if you post back rants about how the pc, internet explorer, or microsoft sucks -- they will be deleted, simply because it has nothing to do with this poll.

It's a way to /help/ you and stop active content from infecting your PC. They figure, if you click on it, then you know about it, and want to use it, rather than letting the script run by itself.
