The problem is that even if it is, you can be in a situation where you have 
an old DLL loaded but with new script running.  I don't think I'm convinced 
that logout/login is a certain remedy.
The version of the DLL is currently 2.5.8.0, and as far as I'm aware, it 
has been for the whole of the 2.5.8 beta process.  I have not tracked 
changes in GUID/IIDs, but I'm certainly guilty of having extended an 
interface without changing the IID.

Well, it's Dave that gets most of the reports - why should we worry...   :-)

I'm supposedly doing a bit of tidying to the DLL, so I'll think about what 
we could do to help things.
