Best!


Answer

problem solved. thanks!


Answer

I just tried 9.5.0.40 in a clean VB6 project that uses the ChilkatHttp class to download a file, and it compiled without issue. Can you provide a code sample that will allow us to reproduce the problem?


Answer

Are you using windows 8.1 with update 1?


Answer

Version 9.5.0.41 has been released, but VB6 still has a problem. The download web page has been update to also include v9.5.0.39 for VB6 users: http://www.chilkatsoft.com/downloads_ActiveX.asp

This will be an extremely difficult problem to resolve, and it's impossible to give any sort of time estimate. For now, the only choice is to use v9.5.0.39.


Answer

OK, so you've seen the problem?


Answer

where is The Link to download a version for vb6 users?


Answer

where is The Link to download a version for vb6 users?

Are you using other activex in your vb6 project? Or are you using any kind of code analyser addin? If so try to disable any addin and try to build a .exe again


Answer

I am unable to reproduce the crash. Please send me a VB6 project (that causes the problem) in a .zip, or make one available for download..
