Does anyone have any thoughts on ActiveX Control? I've been a bit wary, but eBay Enhanced Picture Services uses it, and the service looks useful to me. Thanks.
ActiveX Control equals Microsoft. ActiveX Control also equals great big security hole.
If you already have Microsoft and don't mind providing another way for people to get into your system, go right ahead.
Personally, I would stay far away from it. Then again, I have an active bias against Microsoft and what I consider miserable products that have large and multiple security holes. YMMV.
Until later-- Carole
