Re: can't open ActiveX-based resource in Web browser control using IE7 and IE8 beta1

although I haven't achieved a successful combination which works...

Recently I noticed that this issue was already identified and
addressed in Microsoft's Knowledge Base item 934366 [1].

Although the proposed solution doesn't solve the doubts about MSHTML's
security model and such, changing default value for
"FEATURE_BLOCK_LMZ_SCRIPT" property will allow loading SVG/Flash/PDF
files directly without experiencing the previously stated issue.

Hope this helps,
