The error would tend to indicate that whatever is trying to invoke the .attach method is no longer pointing to an instance of a browser object. Although why that would be the case if the exact same code executes fine on a different system is an interesting question.
You might want to check the 'protected mode' settings for the browser, as that can cause IE to do things like spawn new browser sessions when the security group on a called page is not the same as the current page (and that includes the default page, or 'about:blank'). Server 2008 and Vista are very similar in that respect, but if the code was designed and tested on a vista system where the 'protected mode' was long ago turned off 'because it's a hassle' and the Server 2008 env is fairly pristine (where the browser defaults to protectedmode being ON, and highly discourages the user from disabling it) then it might expain the behavior you are seeing.
