Abstract

The invention discloses a method and client for using an embedded ActiveX plug-in in a browser. The method comprises: detecting that the browser is to load an ActiveX plug-in; judging whether the ActiveX plug-in has already been installed in a computer system where the browser is currently located; if it is determined that the ActiveX plug-in has already been installed in the computer system, intercepting the loading information about the ActiveX plug-in and loading the ActiveX plug-in embedded in the browser; and if it is determined that the ActiveX plug-in has not been installed in the computer system, generating a specific registry key value related to the embedded ActiveX plug-in, and loading the ActiveX plug-in embedded in the browser according to the specific registry key value.
