Flash Vs Active X for rich internet applications

Hi,
I need to make a Rich internet client. I have to chose between Flash and ActiveX
for the same. The concern I have with ActiveX is that any custom control used needs to download some .dll files and it could ask the administrative rights on the local PC.
I have no idea about flash viz the benefits and limitations.
Can someone come up with a comparative arguments.
Thanks in advance

The tool you use should depend on the job at hand: you wouldn't use a hammer to put in a screw; likewise, there are tasks that Flash is well suited for, and tasks which lend themselves to ActiveX.
Please describe the problem at hand, and we will give you better advice.
