this sounds really weird, but unless i install it as a COM+ application,
it doesn't seem to have access to the environment (like the PATH) can't
read it's .ini file (it's an older API i'm working with) from the
system32 directory and such.

As written the COM object works fine on all boxes i've tested except
this one. On this particular box the underlying API fails after being
called a set number of times (a bit less than 4000) sounds like i'm
blowing a buffer, I know, but the API in question has been use in a
variety of environments for many years without seeing this behavior
