Hello

We have a web application which uses some activeX control which is downloded
to the client machine using internet componenet download technology (code
base). If an administrator login to the system, the application is working
fine. If a normal user login he cannot see these activex control. What
should be the setting so that the normal user can access these resources.
All the controls are downloaded to the Downloaded program files folder. Any
clue ?

Thanks
Baiju
 
Have you checked the access rights/security attributes of the particular
folder for this normal user? Check if this normal user has full access
security rights to it.

GLuck!
 
Is it possible to set access rights for the Windows\Downloaded program files
folder.
I checked the properties and there is no Tab for sharing, security etc.. any
clues

Thanks
Baiju
 
For the normal user:
- did you check ActiveX options and have compared with the admin user?
ActiveX options in IE:
Tools/Internet Options/Security/Internet
Try tweaking the customization level of this normal user or copy admin's
configuration then see if this works.

Let me know.

GLuck!

None. In any secure environment, normal users should not be able to
install ActiveX controls. I'd suggest that you rewrite your web
application so that it doesn't require your "clients" to compromise
their security.
