Remote web workplace requires ActiveX controls. Browser security setting may be preventing you from downloading activex controls. Adjust these settings and try again. Where to I find these settings. I cannot locate them in firefox.

Firefox doesn't do ActiveX, proprietary Microsoft thing that is avoided by everyone else due to it being no very secure.

You can try one of these extensions.
