But was wundrin if it has something to do with COM/OLE and 16/32 bit support. Me thinks it does.

The problem would seem to be something to do with the way KiX fetches or OLE delivers, virtual addresses through the IDispatch (Automation) interface ...

Could you run the following script on Win95.

code:

---

break on

$ie = olecreateobject("internetexplorer.application")
?"create:   ie=$ie error=@error @serror"

$rs = olecallfunc($ie, "navigate", "s", "about:blank")
?"navigate: rs=$rs error=@error @serror"

$rs = oleputproperty($ie, "visible", "s", "-1")
?"visible:  rs=$rs error=@error @serror"

?"hit any key to continue..." get $k ; the Radimus Special 'K'

while olegetproperty($ie, "busy") <> "0" and @error = 0 loop
?"loopbusy: error=@error @serror"

$doc = olegetproperty($ie, "document")
?"document: doc=$doc error=@error @serror"

$rs = olecallfunc ( $ie, "quit" )
$rs = olereleaseobject ( $ie )
exit

---

If this doesn't work - we can aslo look at writting the same script in VBScript to see if the same thing occurrs (eliminate KiX as the problem)...
