Debugging a VB6 class library - VERY SLOW startup

[MattWoberts]

Hi,

I have a COM class library that is reasonably big, say 12 classes in it. It compiles in about 15 seconds. But when I try to debug it, by starting it, I get a delay of about 3-4 minutes, and then again a delay of about 2 minutes when I stop it!

I am using VB6 SP2. I tried re-installing VB6, with no SP, but made no difference. I also tried removing all add-ins, and that made no difference.

I'm pulling my hair out here, any advice VERY welcome!

Visual basic has a service pack 6

Two strings walk into a bar. The first string says to the bartender: 'Bartender, I'll have a beer. u.5n$x5t?*&4ru!2[sACC~ErJ'. The second string says: 'Pardon my friend, he isn't NULL terminated'.

Sorry, I did try that but forgot to mention it! I tried sp 5 and 6, and neither made a difference. I'm sure its since I went to XP Service Pack 2 that this problem started...
