This doesn't work on NN4.7/Win, at least (doesn't "fullscreen",
doesn't remove the title bar and decorations) ...

... which is correct. (More precisely, it's the window manager that
adds those items, an academic point with Windoze, more significant
in the Unix/Linux/X11 world - and ActiveX is Win-specific.)
