What does the Web-based installer do?
The installer on FileOpen’s website attempts to provide a simple and seamless install via the browser. However, it works differently for different operating systems and browsers. The default automatic installer uses a Java “conveyor” to download and execute the installer. Users of IE without Java but with security settings that allow signed ActiveX controls to be loaded – the default setting – may see an ActiveX installer. The Java and ActiveX programs are only for convenience and the end result is the same regardless of whether the plug-in is installed via the web, by a downloaded copy of the installer, or manually.
