Removing the zoom option for the current page in IE

Question

Hi,

I implemented an ActiveX control that gets loaded when a tiff file is detected. I want to remove the IE Zoom option for the current page, the zooming will be handled by the activex itself.

From IServiceProvider I can get a pointer to IWebBrowser2, but the only thing I can do there is to query the status of the zoom command.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards, Cristian

It is not possible to do this in an existing browser window. You used to be able to hide the whole status bar if you opened a popup window, but that is not allowed now because of phishing concerns.
