VBScript problem

What am I doing wrong?

Option Explicit

dim intClicks
dim dbltotlbs
dim dblfactor
dim dblpounds


dblfactor = 0.33
intclicks = 3948
dblpounds = 1302.84

dbltotlbs = intclicks * dblfactor
if dbltotlbs <> dblpounds then
MsgBox dbltotlbs
MsgBox dblpounds
else
MsgBox "Equal"
end if





MsgBox "end"

Using 3949 and 1303.17 checks out ok. There are other combinations that work and still others that don't.

Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on the problem.
