Hi all,

I'm having problems when downloading and installing ActiveX controls on my machine. The problem seems to be that IE is not able to store the ocx file properly at the "Downloaded Program Files" folder and then it fails when calls LoadLibrary as the ocx file does not exist. I've checked it using a DOS console and it is not created under that location.

The Code Download Error Logs I get are: (note that error strings have been translated from Spanish and could not be the exact ones that the system would show in English)
- "Code Download Error: (hr = 800703e6) The access the the memory address is not valid." This happens when the .ocx file is downloaded.
- "Code Download Error: (hr = 80070003) The system cannot find the specified path." When the cab file with the ocx is downloaded and I think the error is caused by the same reason than when the ocx is downloaded: the cab file is not properly written at the disk and the ocx cannot be extracted from it.

The strange thing is that other controls developed by myself work fine even if I recompile again (If I test them the ocx are properly placed at "Downloaded... ") and it has been since a couple of days that the new controls do not work fine.

I have browsed this forum and also Microsoft Site (I found the not working URL but have not found any new ideas so any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Sergio.
