Scan computer (clientside)


Recommended Posts

PHP runs server-side, so no. You would need an active-X component.

Ok! I have read something about activex.

How do activex work exactly?

 

Do i have to enable or install something on my server to use activex?

 

EDIT: Nevermind, it seems that ActiveX only runs/works with windows.

Is there a good/easy way to do this with linux?

No, there is no way to do this, and you shouldn't be able to do this for security reasons.

 

Also, if you were to use an ActiveX component, the USER has to agree to download and install it, you can't just do it (again, major security issue).  I run from sites (except Microsoft or other TRUSTED sources) that prompt me to install an ActiveX component and Im sure most others do to.  It is usually a sign of someone trying to install malicious software on your computer.

I didn´t say that i wanted to scan visitots computers WITHOUT telling them about it.

They must accept/install some kind of "process" before the scan starts.

 

I´m greatfull for all info i can get to find a good solution for this "project".
