I think he's trying to drum up interest in his googlegroup!
Shame he hasn't a clue....

ActiveX is a tool or a set of rules that directs a program how to
function. It could be described as containing specifications that
indicate how applications for windows should talk to each other. If
anyone builds an ActiveX control, they can place it inside another
application that understands how to host ActiveX controls. Many sites
require you to download and use ActiveX controls, which lie around and
clutter up the registry of the system. This slows down the system and
it is important to clean up the registry from time to time. In order
to do this you will need a registry cleaner. There are many freeware
registry cleaners on the Internet. Download a free Registry cleaner
for your system and clean up your registry.
How Do We use ActiveX Controls
When a browser detects ActiveX components embedded in the web page the
browser refers to the 'CLASSID' in the webpage to determine if the
required ActiveX controls are present in the computer system. If the
controls are not present the browser will automatically download the
controls. After you have finished with these controls they remain in
your systems registry. A registry window cleaner will cleanup the
registry for you and speed up your system....
