Hi,

Unfortunately, this is not possible without using unsafe ActiveX controls.
You would have to convince your users to lower their security settings (NOT
RECOMMENDED) or write your own control and somehow make sure it was safe
(VERY NOT RECOMMENDED).

Remember that the model for the web is that the browser (working on behalf
of the user) is in control, not the server.
