Oh yeah, I forgot about the "cd" trick. Thanks. I have since nuked and retried several times, though. When I try to activate, I usually get this toward the end: > fixme:wininet:CommitUrlCacheEntryInternal entry already in cache - don't know what to do! And it can't activate. It did it again just a moment ago, and I hit "activate" again, and it worked! Before I have repeatedly tried and it didn't work. Is there a way that I can clear this cache? The cache seems to be a problem. I'm guessing the cache so happened to clear right before I clicked the second time during that last try. It also seems erratic whether it can create an ActiveX object or not. It's all flip-a-coin stuff here. Jake
