ActiveX has a lot more overhead.  Off the top of my head, you'll need to
implement things like IOleWindow, IOleContainer and a bunch of other similar
sounding interfaces.  My impelementations don't actually do much, but you
gotta have 'em.  I learned by reading the web, especially the MSDN ActiveX
sections, and a LOT of trial and error, which continues to this day.
