You can do this if your client is using Internet Explorer, and if you're
willing to write an ActiveX control to do this. If the DLL exposes itself
via COM, you can probably get away with just having your client use Internet
Explorer, and you could probably access the object through scripting within
the browser. In general, this sort of thing would be considered pretty
intrusive, though.
