What is the JavaBeans ActiveX Bridge?

I am guessing it is a way to develop in Java, but deploy in Windows without Java (i.e. no JRE needed), am I correct?

I am developing a small Java bulk mailer program which will be deployed in a Windows environment. Could I use this bridge to wrap my Java program in ActiveX and possibly build the GUI in VB?

I read that a native Windows GUI can speed up Java software considerably.

Interested to hear your thoughts...
