Siebel System Requirements and Supported Platforms > Client Environment Requirements >
Requirements for High Interactivity Clients (Employee Applications)
This section lists requirements for supported employee applications. For a definition of employee applications, see Categorization of Siebel 8 Applications. Table 6 lists the supported Web browser and client operating system combinations for High Interactivity mode deployments, where Yes indicates support. See Table 8 for information about supported versions, required minimum patch levels, and other third-party software requirements. Siebel applications work in the supported browsers, including when the browser is an ActiveX control. NOTE: The Siebel Client environments are supported on Windows XP with Microsoft's "Multilingual User Interface" (MUI) installed. Using MUI will result in certain OS UI elements, such as menus and dialogs, being displayed in the MUI language chosen, while others display in English. This is due to a Microsoft defect.
NOTE: Siebel ActiveX controls are supported for High Interactivity, and work in both 32-bit and 64-bit environments, but only the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer is supported.

Deployment Requirements/Settings
There are specific application and browser settings and patches required to support the Siebel application. These may change over time based on security and other settings that are implemented in third-party products. These settings and application patches are documented in Siebel documentation and some are automatically validated. Changes in third-party products that affect the Siebel application setting requirements after product release are documented on My Oracle Support.
