Deploy ActiveX with SMS
How can I deploy an activex object with SMS without users getting that security prompt in IE when they try and view the web page that needs the activex component.
What I mean here is that if I downlaod the component on a pc through IE, it works fine and doesn't prompt the user once downlaoded.
If I deploy it with SMS with a MSI file it will install it, but then the user gets a security warning every time they try and view that page. Kind of like it puts it in the my computer zone instead of the internet zone.
How can I deploy this activex object and it act just like it came down from the internet?

Thanks for the points. A word of advice when doing GPO Software deployment. Use computer configuration, not the User configuration.
After using the computer configuration, do
Software settings > Software installation > then create a package with your MSI file. Make sure you use, ASSIGN in the deloyment tab in your software package deployment properties page.
