The solution we seem to be leaning toward is to have our customers place the website that serves the OCX in their "Trusted Sites" zone. This works and doesn't nag the user when they are navigating the site unprotected. What I have been investigating is how to make the OCX become a "broker shim" (I think that's how to say it). This way whenever it's launched by a user account the OCX will be able to have medium access rights and write to the user's appdata directory. My initial tests of this method have not been successful. Using the admin account I added a key to: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Low Rights\ElevationPolicy The key was named with the CLSID of my ActiveX control and I added the following two values: CLSID [REG_SZ] = my activex control's CLSID Policy [REG_DWORD] = 2 This will probably be the final post I have in this thread unless I get this working (or someone else gives their 2 cents). - Clayton
