Calling objIE.Quit() certainly isn't a good thing ;-). I would never call
it from within an _OnQuit() handler which only fires if Quit() has already
been called or the user manually cloese the IE instance. Calling it that way
sets up a recursive situation where the OnQuit event fires again causing the
event handler to be called again, etc., etc., etc...
So in this case, I *suppose* that the script logic error you found could end
up trashing the WSH host in the process when it tries to cleanup on
shutdown...
