Awesome thanks now how do I get it to work with Remote Desktop?

I think you might have to go thru the same routine while rdp'd to the remote box. I just guessing though, wouldn't hurt to try.

Well usually in IE it asks you if you want to install and Active X thing. With Firefox it doesn't, does Firefox support active x?

no -
"The recommended lockdown for IE is to shut off Active-X extensions, but FireFox does not support Active-X out of the box"
