Yes. You'll need to authorize my signed ActiveX code, and you'll be able to
view my security certificate (signed by a trusted certificate authority) ... If
you trust my website (which, if you were my customer and you were on the phone
with me, you would) then you would authorize the download and execution of the
product, then the control would activate.

No more than any other signed ActiveX control floating about...

Indeed. 100% of my customers use some form of Windows (80% use AOL, agh.) I'm
not biased to any other OS. As a matter of fact, I go through great pains to
insure the useful function of our website on other platforms and browser-types.
I find that my problem-children are the AOL'ers who can hardly tell me what
version of windows they are running. We spend hours doing click, and scroll.
I'm sure you internet-service operators can sympathize.

The "DesktopStreaming"-type products have a chat console that appears on the
user's desktop, and they can do things like spawn new internet explorer windows
pointed to useful websites... Do y'all think this is worthwhile to work into
the scheme of things?
