Activex one minute delay

[Guest]

We have a server running IIS on our network that is accessed only by local
machines (no internet access) it displays heart monitor tracings using
activex. When a pc accesses the site the heart monitor wave forms will
display without any problem if the client pc has internet access, but if the
client does not have internet access it takes approximately 1 minute before
the wave form will display.

I have did a capture of the traffic and what is happening is it goes to
(http://activex.microsoft.com/objects/ocget.dll) and then to
(http://codecs.microsoft.com/isapi/ocget.dll). If the PC does not have
internet access it will try to get to these sites for 1 minute the it will
dispay the activex without any problems.

How can I get around this delay? Giving the machines internet access is not
an option.

I have tried different setting in the IE security setting for activex but no
difference.

Thanks for any help.

Hi Scott,

Your client PC's are trying to connect to the internet to compare the
version of the ActiveX control that is installed on the client.

To correct the problem change the codebase attribute within your <object>
tag to a local url or remove it completely. The first option is the best
solution as it allows you to control ActiveX control updates to your client
machines to ensure they are all using the current version of the control.

Regards.

Thanks for the input

That site is on a vendors machine, so I do not have control over the code on
the pages. But I will pass the information along.
