Many malicious or compromised webpages target outdated ActiveX controls with security flaws to collect info from your PC, damage info on your PC, install software on your PC without your agreement, or let someone else control your PC remotely.
Številne zlonamerne ali ogrožene spletne strani napadajo zastarele kontrolnike ActiveX z varnostnimi napakami, da zberejo podatke iz računalnika, poškodujejo podatke v računalniku, namestijo programsko opremo v računalnik brez vašega soglasja ali omogočijo nekomu oddaljeni nadzor nad računalnikom.
