DSOFramer corrupts window title of embedded IE control

C

I am using the DSOFramer to load a Word document into a Web browser
which is embedded in an application. There is a problem when DSOFramer
is used outside of Internet Explorer.

When used with "other" browsers which use the IE WebBrowser control, the
window title is permanently corrupted after leaving the page with
DSOFramer. So you load the DSOFramer page and it loads OK, then navigate
to another page and the Window title changes to a different character
set (unicode? different locale?) It looks like a bunch of squares and
odd characters. After loading the DSOFramer page, the window title is
permanently corrupt, going to other pages changes the number of
characters shown, but the window title is shown in the wrong character
set. This is using DSOFramer 1.2 from
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311765/EN-US/

This can be reproduced by using one of these browsers and in other
applications that put the WebBrowser in a notebook:
http://www.avantbrowser.com (my favorite browser BTW)
http://www.maxthon.com

It may be that it only breaks when using the WebBrowser control with
DSOFramer in a notebook.

With IE it works OK. Using WebBrowser with a simple VBScript window also
works OK.

Any ideas of what this is and how to fix it?

Thanks in advance,
Chad

Here is a sample page...

<html><head></head>
<body>
Test
<object classid='clsid:00460182-9E5E-11d5-B7C8-B8269041DD57'
width='100%' height='100%'>
</object>
</body></html>

Load the Sample page to Avant Browser or Maxthon then go to another
page. Poof. This same problem occurs with other applications.
