Question : Run sndvol32.exe (Play Control) from a web page

The setup is a (closed) intranet: Internet Explorer 4+ and Microsoft Windows on all machines.

The ideal scenario is that the website is able to launch sndvol32.exe - Windows' volume control
without additional dialogs (possible exception of a security pop-up if this absolutely cannot be
avoided).

Any suggestions as how to approach this?

Make a new project in VB6, name it "vol". Type following code into a class module (name=contr).

Function turnOn()
    Call Shell("sndvol32.exe", vbNormalFocus)
End Function

Compile as ActiveX DLL.Package as "Internet Cab Package"
