Active X

[Wong Chun Meng <cmwong () lestertech com>]

Many of us know that ActiveX is a hazard to network security. But how many
of you (or advise your clients) do actually block out incoming activeX into
your networks? The reason I ask is because some of the development work
conducted by my programmers require clients to download an activeX control
from my website. Is activeX really such a widespread problem in a corporate
environment to the extent that many block it off? And how far can one trust
an activeX certified by microsoft or verisign etc?  

TIA for any insight into this matter..
