ActiveX Control

ActiveX Control is a software framework developed by Microsoft that allows interactive content to be embedded in web pages and applications. Think of it as a tool that enables developers to create and share small programs or components that enhance user experience, like interactive forms, games, or media players. ActiveX controls run inside web browsers, mainly Internet Explorer, and can perform tasks or provide features that standard web pages cannot. While they offer powerful functionalities, they also raise security concerns, as they can access system resources and data, requiring users to be cautious about their use.
