No idea how that ActiveX has been corrupted, but here it how to remove it.

Press Alt–X to open the Tools menu
Select “Manage Add-ons”
In Add-on Types, keep “Toolbars and Extensions” selected
Scroll down to find the extension “SS3Object Control”. Select it.
In the bottom pane, click on “More information”
You have now a popup window “More information” with a “Remove” button at the very bottom. Click that button.
Reopen Surveillance Station. The ActiveX will be re-installed. But now, the problem is gone…
