The DoWebLaunch() method of the Gateway WebLauncher ActiveX control allows for the execution or arbitrary application on a system, additionally this method is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in the 2nd and 4th parameters. Both weblaunch.ocx and weblaunch2.ocx allow the execution of arbitrary files, weblaunch.ocx is vulnerable to the above mentioned buffer overflow, I have not checked weblaunch2.ocx.
