Or for any other system (discounting Crossover Office on Linux systems). Sadly, ActiveX is the thing that make it easy for people to rapidly create browser based applications which is why a lot of people are out there trying to sell their products based on it. Interestingly ActiveX is officially a platform-independant component architecture, it's just that there's only one architecture it's produced for.
