Wait, you said EPA scans which means your talking about AAC as well.

ActiveX objects for CAG/AAC, if I can remember correctly off the top of my
head, include EPA and Live Edit.  Live Edit ActiveX control is only
installed on demand the first time.  as well, the ICA client still requires
admin access to install although I'm not sure how that translates from the
ActiveX standpoint although I would assume it would still require admin
access for the various components required.

But the ICA client is not the standard AG install. The AG client is not an activex client. I'm not sure what WI page AG has but I do know you can point AG to use WI as a page. Or am I missing something here from the explanation?
