Call to guid property of Scriptlet.TypeLib times out

[Thomas Born]

Hi;
I use following code in an ASP page to generate a GUID:

<%
dim obj
Set obj = Server.CreateObject("Scriptlet.TypeLib")
Response.Write(obj.guid)
Set obj = nothing

%>

It worked fine on my WIN2000 computer running IIS. I recently bought a
new computer with XP Pro and this page times out. I now it is the call
to obj.guid. I have seen the same behaviour on another XP machine as
well.

The funny thing is if I paste this code into VB and display the guid
in a message box, it runs without a problem.

Any ideas, is this not supported in XP?

Thanks

I found the solution to the problem. My antivirus software had script
blocking activated. After I disabled this, the asp page started to work and
I could see the GUID.

It still would be nice to have this working with script blocking activated.
