IE plug-in

Environment: MSVC 4.2, NT 3.51

We were discussing the viability of writing an app which determines the time 
taken
for a web page to download.

Although using MSVC 4.2 to create a browser (using WinInet classes) and the 
HTML ICP
control to view the page seems plausible, I would think creating a Netscape, or 
IE plug-in,
would seems more appropriate.

Has anyone seen how to create such a plug-in using MFC? Are there already such
products on the market?

I don't have any info on how to write an ie plug-in, but you may look at =
http://www.starfish.com for their internet utilities.  You may even =
download one for free.  It is a ie AND netscape plug-in which monitor =
line & TCP activity.  Really nice.

Stingray Software has a product in beta, Objective Plug-in, that
lets you convert MFC applications into plug-ins (for both
nn3 and ie3).

You can see a demo at http://www.stingsoft.com

(The demo is scribble converted into a plug-in...)

     Yes, I think Stingray has an MFC extention to create Netscape
     Plug-Ins. But IMHO you can easily do it youself - just download latest
     Netscape Plug-In development kit, create a project - DLL using
     statically linked MFC and go ahead. As the metter of fact Netscape has
     an example in the PDK. I was able to create a plug-in using MFC (16
     and 32 bit) working with IE 3.0 and Navigator 2.x-3.0 without mach
     trouble.

     Good luck
