ActiveX Control will not instantiate

Hi all.

Does anyone know of any utility out there that will help me determine
why IE will not instantiate an ActiveX control?

I have written a custom ActiveX control in Visual Basic 6. It has no
GUI, it simply exposes a few methods that are accessed by VBScript. On
some computers, I am having trouble getting the control to instantiate
consistently. The kicker is that SOMETIMES it instantiates without any
changes to the control, client, or HTML. If you refresh and clear your
cache enough (or so it seems), eventually it will work. Reload a few
more times, and it stops instantiating! Instead of the control, I get a
small square box with a dot in the middle where it should be. The
control is properly registered and I can instantiate it inside of a
Visual Basic program on the same computer consistently.

Thank you!

Matthew Connor
