Hi,

Since a few weeks I have a new PC (Acer Aspire M3610) with Windows Vista
Home Premium installed. I work from home for a jobsite and use a
.hta-application - a toolbar - to manage e-mail and backoffice database stuff.

In XP this all worked fine, but in Vista I get errors. Starting the toolbar
and logging in to it works fine, but when I click on a link to start a
function (e.g. E-mail or Candidatemanagement) I get the following error:

"HTA Error: Exception occured while calling htaLoadandRun()"

sometimes also (and I hope my translation is not to far off):

"Automatic server can't create object"

I searched high and low, tried changing many settings (and back) in
Firewall, user specific licenses(?) etc. Called supportdesk of the used app
and wrote to Acer. And I still come up empty.

Anyone with a hint of an answer to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

It possibly uses a library not available in Vista. What code executes in the loadAndRun function?
