found the answer five minutes after posting the question. Isn't that
always the way?
I had not granted the Apache user permission to launch IE. To do so:
* launch DCOMCNFG.exe
* choose "internet explorer" and click "properties"
* choose the "security" tab and and "custom launch permissions"
* "
I'm trying to have a Python script (which is being launched by Apache
as a CGI) control Internet Explorer. I have this working on my
development box, but when I moved the code to my integration test box,
I get "Access Denied" when trying to launch IE. This only seems to
happen when running Apache
