SYMPTOMS
After installing the Microsoft Script Debugger, all scripting on documents loaded by Internet Explorer 3.0/3.01 may become deactivated. Also, the script debugger may fail to do any syntax coloring on the sections of VBScript or JScript in viewed pages.



CAUSE
A VBScript or JScript DLL with an older version may have been added to the system.



RESOLUTION
Verify that the registry key at the following points to a VBScript DLL with a version stamp of 3.0.0.1217 or higher: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8} InprocServer32] After installation of the Microsoft Script Debugger, this value typically points to the following: \system\VBscript.dll Similarly, verify that the registry key at the following location points to a JScript DLL with the same version stamp: 3.0.0.1217: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F414C260-6AC0-11CF-B6D1-00AA00BBBB58} InprocServer32] When fixing a mismatch, it is more appropriate to change the registry entry to point to a VBScript or JScript DLL with the correct version than to overwrite any other VBScript or JScript DLLs on the system.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.



MORE INFORMATION
VBScript/JScript DLLs marked with major version 1.0 or 1.1 shipped with Internet Explorer 3.0/3.01.

VBScript/JScript DLLs marked with major version 2.0 shipped with the Active Server Pages component of Internet Information Server 3.0.

VBScript/JScript DLLs marked with major version 3.0 are currently only shipping with the BETA release of the Microsoft Script Debugger.
