ActiveX control. An ActiveX control is a component program object that can be re-used by many application programs within a computer or among computers in a network. The technology for creating ActiveX controls is part of Microsoft's overall ActiveX set of technologies, chief of which is the Component Object Model (COM).
Internet Explorer 8 allows greater control of where and under what context ActiveX controls can run. In this version of Internet Explorer, ActiveX controls that are embedded as Web objects are presented to the user as add-ons. Through the new Manage Add-ons dialog box, the registry, or site-locking technology (such as the SiteLock ATL Template), these add-ons can be restricted for use on specific Web sites.
