Authenticode ID Inquiry

Dear gurus and members,

I am very new in digital certificates and authentication matters. I created an exe application ( 2 dlls are required to run this application) for my e-learning website. The user is requested to download and install the application on the 1st time they go to my site. After that, whenever the user clicks on a button on their browser, the vbscript will launch the application(located on the user's computer).

Currently, I found problems in accessing the application from the browser. ActiveX bugs keep disabling me to run the exe file. However, after I enable download unsigned ActiveX controls from Internet Options-->Security Settings, a message box displaying 'ActiveX control on this page might be unsafe...Yes/No' pop up. If I click Yes, it will run my exe application smoothly. I do not hope to request user to change their browser security settings to "low" as it opens the door to malicious programs and users are at risks. Therefore, I wonder if I digitally sign my application could solve this security problem. Besign getting code signing ID, is there other methods to go around this?

Looking forward to some reply soon.

Thanks in advance,
Janice

If you get your application Digitally Signed then you shouldnt have any problem, unless they user set their security settings to Disable all ActiveX control.

Thanks Danial for your information.

Cheers,
Janice
