My Desktop startbar icons won't load and something in my activex settings is screwed!

[Mira Silver]

I have NO idea what is wrong with my computer. It's a Compaq Presario (CV735? not sure.) Anywho, when the computer starts up the taskbar doesn't load any icons and when I click the start button nothing pops up but the button stays pushed. When I try to click my computer it doesn't let me browse it tells me:

"Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly."

Then when I tried to edit those security settings it was blank and it would error and close when I tried changing em.

And then it has this weird looking

Can anyone help?
