The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1. Login to E-Business Suite

You can see if that is the only setting that needs to be changed,

If it still pops up, go back and disable these three as well,

1) Allow scriptlets

2) Automatic prompting for active x controls

3) Allow status bar updates via script
