[THIN] Re: OT: Crystal Decisions v8.5 activex viewer

It's a PS 4.0 farm. I don't think Advanced Edition supports AIE
though. I was thinking same lines though worse case of just having a
term server run IE6 and having a shortcut to that published app on the
users desktop.

Long term this may come up again. Anyone ever virtualize IE6 on a
terminal server (App-V or the new XenApp Application streaming)? Is
this difficult? Someday I'll get this farm upgraded to XA
5.0/Enterprise.

My uneducated guess is that with 4.5 and higher you have a good chance to use application isolation to run such a setup.
