It's hard to say what is wrong just by reading descriptions on a forum. I can imagine it being any number of simple things like you've set IE not to allow ActiveX content or you're running 64 bit IE, or it could be something like some registry key has improper
permissions. If you post/host a log of iexplore.exe trying to load Silverlight content using something like Process Monitor (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/processmonitor.mspx ) I might be able to figure something out.
Many users reported problems running Silverlight on 64-bit IE and you stated that 64-bit IE is a problem, Does this mean that Silverlight does not currently support 64-bit IE. And if the answer is yes, is there a work-around, and is it in your plan to support
64-bit IE in the next release?

I think i've done the logging correctly. I've uploaded it in the Native Process Monitor format to my box.net as its a bit too large to post here. Here is the link:

y_makram, Silverlight is installed as a 32 bit plugin. On 64 bit machines, Silverlight should run correctly in the WoW (Windows on Windows, a component of 64 bit Windows that run 32 bit applications), but it won't work with 64 bit IE. The work around is
use the 32 bit version of IE (64 bit machines should have a 32 bit and 64 bit version). I don't know of any plans to do a 64 bit release right now, but that can always change.
anonymouse91, looks like you don't have read permissions for HKCR\AgControl.AgControl and you verify if you can read this in regedit, set the permissions so you can read it, and try to view some Silverlight content?
I just checked and I didn't have any permissions at all so I added full access to both the AgControl.AgControl key and AgControl.AgControl.0.90 key but still nothing :(

Perhaps add permissions for the whole HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT?

I suggest either looking through your registry for other permissions problems, or sending me another log.
