I am writing web-based reporting which uses ASP pages calling an ActiveX dll written in VB6, running on a Win2K Advanced Server platform.

The application has been running fine for about a month until the back end of last week when it suddently started throwing the error below everytime the ASP makes a call to the COM component:

"Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A01A8) - Object required"

My gut feeling is that the error has come about as a result of a change in security setting either on the server itself or the network, perhaps as a result of a security patch or anti-virus update, but I don't have any information on this.
Have you encountered this behavior before or do you have any ideas as to how this might be explained/resolved? The code was originally developed in NT4, and it still works that environment.

Thanks in advance
