what ActiveX control implementing a web browser?

I am coding an add-on using an existing SDK which has no webview-like component but allows for ActiveX controls.

So the only idea I come up with is find an ActiveX control implementing a web browser or at least show a web browser.

Is there such control?

Don't use the IE activex control, it's full of memory leaks.

See this post for alternatives:

Replacing .NET WebBrowser control with a better browser, like Chrome?

Finally find it.

SHDocVw.WebBrowser will do.

Usually the path is C:\Windows\System32\shdocvw.dll

FireBreath has a WebView library that uses the IE activex control to embed a web browser inside a FireBreath plugin (which acts as an ActiveX Control on IE). You should be able to adapt it, assuming you're using C++.
