Use Client/Server application. Not .Net Winform for you cannot force your
customers to install .Net FW if they choose not to. Package it using Wise or
InstallShield and allow them to down load and install.

Very clumsy programming methodology. Not very clean. Avoid this.

You need to code-sign the activeX using, say VeriSign Cert. ($400.00/Year to
sign unlimitted apps.)

If you generate $$$, then VeriSign is very cheap to buy, 1 cert costs $400
good for 1 year and you can use on any app. you create. Today Windows server
can issue all kinds of certificates. You, in fact, can be your own CA and
issue your own certificates and "convince" your clients to trust you.
In summary, in three years, I would say it is safe to deploy .Net Winform
via internet as other poster suggested. Today, many of my users are still on
Win9x and NT 4.0. It is tough to get rid of that "old habit dies hard". The
best solution is deploy legacy Win32B apps.. It's been working fine for
ages!
