Is it possible for you to put together an actual program that you know 
works, and you know will reliably hang the win32com interface.  If you 
have a program I need do nothing more to than run, then I will at least 
be able to see where the failure is.

Thanks for the suggestion.  A second edition hasn't been started yet, 
but I am sure it will be one day ;)
