Question

I am attempting to write a VB.net application which will allow users to create their own widget plugins in html/jscript and i would like to set my own security options in the applications settings allowing users to choose what can run or not eg scripts, flash, activex.

I would like to allow activex controls to be used without the windows security dialog in the WebBrowser Control (An ActiveX control is trying to interact with the page…) or what ever it says.

I started customizing the WB Control to suite my needs implementing various interfaces such as IOleClientSite, IDocHostShowUI, IDocHostUIHandler, etc…

I can’t seem to find anything that will allow me to control the security permissions of the WB Control. I tried to implement IHttpSecurity and IInternetSecurityManager but I’m either barking up the wrong tree or not doing it right.

Answer 1

IInternetSecurityManager requires IQueryInterface.
I didn’t have IQueryInterface implemented in my application which was why it wasn’t working.
