All I'm doing to try and keep the objects from loading is defining all
objects with display:none - is there a more reliable way to prevent
objects from loading in the background? I took a quick look on msdn for
some ActiveX magic method, but wasn't able to find anything.
It looks like it does loose the values of some of the params
unfortunately. If there is a way around that, I'd be happy to implement
it.

It doesn't seem to Geoff, I tested it with a 100%x100% object:

The object tag has noscale params, there is one problem though, it seems
as
if the replaced objects appear to still be loading from the browsers
perspective.
Besides this, seems like a reliable exploit so far. Nice job Kevin.

Would it make sense for this to work with all Active X Objects? The
idea
is to override object activation by rewriting the objects after the
document
is loaded? Is this a hole in the activation process, where it will only
force activation when the page is being initialized? Objects written
after
the page is loaded slip through?

I didn't want to have to redefine all the stuff that has already been
defined in the html object. So I made this: :-)

A super tiny js file include and a stylesheet takes care of all object
activation. It's a bit brute force, but it should get the job done if
you are looking for a quick fix and are using static embedded html. If
anyone has any ideas on how to make this more robust, please let me
know. :-)

you could do this with flashobject really easily.
just call fo.write() whenever you want and it will replace the object
you target with your flash movie.

I prefer solutions that try to hide IE's lack of conformity, like
Dean Edwards's IE 7 script:

There are just too many installations to realistically ignore them.
Speaking of hacking on IE, is there a way to prevent an object from
loading? By that I mean, I want to use Object tags to embed a Swf,
but I don't want it to download or load in the background until I
tell it to via a script interaction (vbscript or javascript). Will
hiding it via css do the trick, or will I need to take further steps
to keep it from loading?
Thanks,
