This statement is TOO true. ActiveX has been demonstrated
causing systems to be shut down, transfering money
from your quicken accounts etc. M$ doesn't like that
aspect of the above statement and if they're confronted
with it say "Well all ActiveX components are signed" which
only means that you should be able to track who did it.
The only trouble is, ActiveX is SO powerfull it can erase
the tracks as well!

I'll NEVER let ActiveX/Internet Explorer on ANY system I own
(Even if they do support Java).
