How I can run ActiveX object in Internet explorer without allowing it Internet-explorer options?
Our customer can’t allow using ActiveX for security reasons. But we need to use third party program, which have an ActiveX interface.
Can I wrap ActiveX object inside applet (or any other ideas?), so Internet Explorer don’t know anything about ActiveX object being running inside applet (so IE don’t show any security warnings)?
Only a trusted applet could use ActiveX objects. The prompts for trusting a Java applet are security warnings.
So, no. A sand-boxed (unprompted) Java applet cannot call an ActiveX control at all.
But even a trusted applet is still subject to security from the browser or OS. E.G. if ActiveX is disabled, even a trusted applet could not enabled it. Or if it could, that would be a security bug. Let us know, and we’ll get it fixed ASAP.
