It doesn't pull up using firefox (with the user agent switcher configured to
claim it's IE 6) on Windows or linux. I get an "error on page" message. So
it's certainly ActiveX. That's probably going to be real flaky at best on
crossover if the app is programmed that tightly to the IE5.5 or higher platform.
