Ed, I had same problem with XP.

Mine was clearly caused by shutting down AB using jscript or OLE . I suppose 
it was OLE since that runs last.

I beleive it was the way I was closing AB after processing data.

Sorry can not be more specific, but I do know various OS respond differently 
to script / OLE.

currently I use (in OLE):
To open:   AB = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application")
To Close:  AB.Quit()
