The solution was posted by XanXui. I salute him!!! I have been looking to solve this issue for quite awhile.
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript>
<!--
if ((navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer")&&(navigator.platform != "MacPPC"))
{
document.write("<OBJECT ID=\"VAtCtrl\" WIDTH=800 HEIGHT=600 name=\"VAtCtrl\"");
document.write(" CLASSID=CLSID:210D0CBC-8B17-48D1-B294-1A338DD2EB3A");
document.write(" CODEBASE=\"/VatDec.cab#version=1,0,0,51\">");
document.write("<PARAM NAME=\"VSize\" VALUE=\"SIF\">");
document.write("<PARAM NAME=\"Language\" VALUE=\"en\">");
document.write("<PARAM NAME=\"Deblocking\" VALUE=\"true\">");
document.write("<PARAM NAME=\"DisplayTimeFormat\" VALUE=\"1\">");
document.write("<PARAM NAME=\"DigitalZoomEnableChk\" VALUE=\"true\">");
document.write("<PARAM NAME=\"DigitalZoomEdit\" VALUE=\"true\">");
document.write("<PARAM NAME=\"Url\" VALUE=\"
http://username:password@ipaddress:port/cgi-bin/control.cgi\">");
document.write("</OBJECT>");
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
Make the appropriate substitutions in the code for username, password, ipaddress and port.
