PassiveX is dead?

[Richard Miles <richard.k.miles () googlemail com>]

Hi

I tested passiveX against my Windows Vista and IE8 and it doesn't
work, I also tested against an Windows XP SP3 and IE7 and it also
failed, shell never returned.

In my opinion passiveX was one of the best payloads in metasploit. Is
it really broken? Any prevision to fix it?

Is it broken even in Metasploit Professional? There are better
payloads (more robust, hard to detect and better to find their way to
the internet on the Metasploit Professional)?

Thanks.
