I do, but I've switched to using makepy directly more often than the 'COM
browser'.  Having a zillion COM servers installed tends to give problems to
all utility programs that try to grep throughout the registry for registered
COM servers -- e.g., Microsoft's excellent "OleView" (comes with VC++ and
can also be downloaded for free in the platform SDK) regularly gives me
runtime errors when trying to list "all" servers of certain kinds.  Maybe I
should procure and regularly run registry-cleaning programs...!-)
