Hi,
Coding AJAX in internet explorer without using the activex objects is not easy to achieve.
Here are two links that might help you out:

In addition to the links provided by Anpanman, take a look at a couple of the available Ajax libraries:
Prototype - http://prototype.conio.net/
or Dojo - http://dojotoolkit.org/
Both of these libraries serve as a cross-browser foundation for creating Ajax requests and allow for extending the capabilities for effects, element watching and events.
Besides, once IE7 hits the street, it will use the XmlHttpRequest object natively, instead of having to instantiate an ActiveX control. If you start using Prototype or Dojo now, you won't have to revisit your code in a few weeks/months.
Hope this helps,
Ric

One other thing to look at is the "Security Settings" of IE...it can be set to allow ActiveX Objects to run without raising that alert. If you look at Internet Options --> Security tab, you'll see where you can adjust your security level for the various zones. If you click the "Custom Level..." button, you'll be able to adjust the prompts for ActiveX controls and plug-ins.
I've got "Automatic prompting for ActiveX controls" set to "Disable" and "Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins" set to "Enable". If I change either of these, I get the alert you've described, so I'm assuming these are the two that affect running the ActiveX Ajax objects.
I hope this helps,

Forget coding and try XAjax for browser independent, automated "event to PHP" calls.

Are you running the site locally? If so, then you need to acces it via a webserver instead
