I have compiled an ActiveX Document dll for internet distribution and put all three files (doc.vbd, doc.dll, project.cab) on our webserver together with a .html page in which there is an object tag and a link to the .vbd file.
The problem is, when I access this page from my own machine on which I developed this document, there's no problem. I can write links like " and view my ActiveX Document. But when I move to another machine on the same intranet and write the same address, I get a pop up asking me whether I want to download this vbd file or open it there. And when I choose open it there, it just comes up with a list of programs.

I got a solution that "the problem is due to the Internet Explorer Security settings. Lower the settings and it will install just fine. ". This also did not solve the problem.
HELP
