Greetings. I followed the link you posted, read the thread and got a little hope. Did the whole set permission thing in RegEdit, though I found that the current user already had write access to CoCreate. I do not run any spy ware, have windows firewall turned off as well as my anti-virus, I even stopped most of the other programs only leaving the Windows components to run. Now, is this only a problem when running CoCreate on Windows XP? If so, Vista will have to do. I just want to make sure to cut on unnecessary time wasting.
