In Part One of our Introduction to ActiveX, we covered the basics of ActiveX controls. Today we're going to go over some ActiveX specifics as they relate to the Internet Explorer environment and the management of ActiveX controls. The default installation location for ActiveX controls is %windir%\Downloaded Program Files. You will normally see the control itself, as well as the .INF file contained within the .CAB file when downloaded to the client machine during installation. Note that the operating system sees this location as a special directory type, so you will need to use a CMD window to view the installed files in their normally downloaded state.
