I.E Plugin detection

Hello all!

I need to do detect the IPXI move player plugin in IE. I know you have
to look for the Active X object, Netscape you just loop through and it will
print out the plugins.
Can anyone point me to a script that will detect IE plugins?
Thanks in advance!

It's QuickTime specific, but it demonstrates one way to detect plugins on
Internet Explorer. Pay particular attention to phrases such as "Since plug-in
detection is a notoriously tricky business, this script was written to make
detection of the most common plug-ins as painless as possible."

If the code at the above URL does not give you enough information, you can try:

Hi, My idea is to create a system working as follows: each module knows path to plugin directory, and that directory contains modules which may add hooks to some points in the code. Inspired by http://www.python.org/pycon/2005/papers/7/pyconHooking.html I would create a class like this:

Hello, I'm attempting to develop a plugin framework for an application that I'm working on. I wish to develop something in which all plugins exist in a directory tree. The framework need only be given the root of the tree. The framework then uses os.path.walk to search all for all files named 'plugin.pyc'. These are then loaded using imp.load_compiled(). They need contain only one variable called 'plugin' which is a reference to an...

In a recent thread in this group, I said that in some cases object detection and feature tests weren't sufficient in the development of cross-browser applications, and that there were situations where you could improve the application by detecting the browser vendor/version. Some of the posters here disagreed. Since then, I've had to deal with a few of these cases; some of them could be rewritten to use object detection, and some couldn't....

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
