Problem using activex control in two instances of IE

I have written a activex control. It works fine with a single instance of IE. But if there are two instances of IE, using the same activex the second instance of IE crashes. Can anyone explain why this is happening.

Thanks.

Hi,

It's quite possible thatboth instances of the control are sharing state adn thus getting confused. You should check that the control is storing state per instance and not globally for the machine. Without more details though this is just a guess.
