Making Firefox use ActiveX ... I dunno about that ... but it would be better than running IE on Linux ... a mortal sin for sure

Making FF use ActiveX would be opening it up to all the ActiveX vulnerabilities of MSIE. ActiveX blows.
H_TeXMeX_H:
Of course it does ... but if you wanna play pocker it beats actually using IE.

duh
"would be opening it up to all the ActiveX vulnerabilities of MSIE."
do not think so ...
:) FF does not manage BHO's and other stuff the same way as MSIE...
Aloone_Jonez:
I would hope Firefox implements ActiveX proberly and runs the controls in a proper little sand box totally isolatied from the system otherwise it's just as shit as IE.
