Best simple way I think to explain this is that these are just little lines of code needed to run some of the software or background programs when online. When that alert popped up there should have been a button asking you if you wanted to install activex. I always keep it updated when needed and sometimes my 'Safety Software' finds an activex code that is trouble. Why I don't know but when your anti whatever finds it delete it. I have never had any problems with running activex.
Download it, use it and have a good day.

do a search for it then download it. Make sure you get the version for your OS if it asks.

ActiveX is basically a framework which can be used to en corporate functionality of one software in another. For example, when you are building a new application, you can use MS Office activex to encorporate word or excel functionality in the new application.
When you are running such an application, i.e. when you run an application which uses Activex the application tries to find that particular activex in your computer and it cannot find it, it will not run properly.
Most probably, you have seen 'activex' in internet explorer. That is the result of a webpage's need to run/show something that needs a particular activex to be installed in your system.
I hope this answer made you understand something about the activex without confusing you....

A Microsoft programming architecture that allows programs to interact with other programs over a network, such as the Internet. The controls created with ActiveX enable developers to add extra capabilities to Web sites, such as animation.
