using ActiveX

I want to run an active X object and retrieve client machine processor id and Harddisk id to generate a computer specific License file. Is there any method to do so.

I want to execute the Active X with client permission via a button click( or any other process), retrieve the details, generate the License file and give it to the customer. I dont know how to implement this, because executing Active x depends on client browser settings.


Can any one guide me in this regard.

You will have to write your own. Do you know Visual Basic 6 or .NET, C#, or C++? Any one of those could get you an ActiveX application. Then you just have to embed/call that in your HTML page.

Note that ActiveX is a huge security risk. Only IE uses it, and even then many people block it.

Thank you, I too though of writing ActiveX in vb. But worried about the IE security that blocks active X Any how will try to sort

Thank you again
