How do I Purify an ActiveX control inside Internet Explorer? (Error Detection)

You must first instrument and run Microsoft's Internet Explorer (usually located in C:\Program Files\Plus!\Microsoft Internet\Iexplore.exe or C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\Iexplore.exe). Then run your control in the instrumented Internet Explorer.

Purify returns error data for any control launched in the instrumented version of Internet Explorer.

Note:

§      If the Active Desktop component of Internet Explorer is installed, you must use the Internet Explorer -new option. Either type it in the Command-line arguments field in the Run Program dialog box, or include it in the command line. To check whether the Active Desktop component is installed, right-click your desktop and choose Properties from the shortcut menu. If the Active Desktop component is installed, the Properties dialog box has a Web tab.
