control a downloaded activex control
-
I have an activeX control that I have tested and signed - however I have discovered that I can download the control from a web page that is on a different site to the control (.cab) Is there a way of marking the control so that it cannot be 'borrowed' by another site ?

there's some licensing you can do - for example, the MSHFlexGrid (in Visual Studio etc) is a licensed control - there is a special procedure that must be gone through to use it on a machine that does not have VB or Visual Studio installed. I don't know how to license a control, but I do have experience with this particular control and the hoops we had to do to get it to work. (on a pc that had not had the licensing procedure run, it displays as a blank box)

thanks - I did look at licensing but I couldn't see how it would stop anyone from using the control x-domains - I eventually implemented something via IObjectWithSite - to get the URL that the control was working under and then check to see if the url domain was one I allow access to Holy Handgrenade of Antioch instructions
