Guys,
DQSD is difficult to install. There are a lot of reports of problems, and
as far as I can see, they're nearly always caused by a failure to get the
right version of the ActiveX DLL installed and registered. There's a
whole performance of logout/login which is difficult to get
supposedly doing a bit of tidying to the DLL, so I'll think about what
we could do to help things.
