COM objects are registered objects that have can be used by different
applications.
They are unloaded automatically as Windows detects they are no longer in
use.

This is true when all references to the objects in the DLL are released, but
the DLL would still show in the module list in tools like PrcView.

I have no idea whether COM objects can be written in VB as DLL's or not,
but I know they can in C++.

VB6 can create ActiveX DLL's, which COM/COM+ where improvement upon it, as
far as I know.
