IE security update affecting Project Web Access behaviour

If you (or your company's system administrators on your behalf) have downloaded and installed the latest security updates for Internet Explorer ActiveX you may have experienced a slightly different behaviour in IE when working with Project Web Access.

E.g. when using the Portfolio Analyzer feature of Project Web Access you could start moving around columns etc. right away in one of your views. Now, with the above mentioned security update applied, you will first have to activate the ActiveX control by selecting the object and then you can start with changing the order of the columns in your Portfolio Analyzer views.
The same in timesheets. Before clicking the cell you want to write values into you have to select the timesheet object with an extra click. This is the new behaviour everywhere where ActiveX controls are used in PWA. Of course this is not only the case with Project Web Access but rather with all websites that use ActiveX objects.

As you can probably tell this could cause confusion among users. Therefore I would recommend you to inform everybody pro-actively about this change in behaviour. Although people probably won't like this new extra click they will have to deal with it sooner or later. Microsoft has provided a compatibility patch that will restore the old behaviour temporarily.
