[maemo-users] n810 and Active X

I am not programing or making active x stuff, I agree how annoying  
that stuff is... however, some people out there did program webpages  
using active x (all the cool kids were doing it at the time) and our  
narrow minded windows using decision makers keep getting stuff  
requires active x including HR software and an IP Camera that would be  
cool to view wirelessly.  My current solution is to VNC into an XP box  
with IE open to the camera page and view it from there, but the  
refresh rates are lame.
