Web Browser Object vs IE object

Dear VB Developers,

I am using IE object from within my ActiveX DLL application to navigate to the various secured sites (ie https://....) I use Navifgate method while disabling reading from cache (like m_intExplorer.Navigate m_WebUrl, 4 + 8 ) and wait for DocumentComplete event to fire.

My problem is that it takes twice as much time to get this event fired compating to the time I had in the similair Standard Exe application where I used WebBrowser object (placed on the form) and waited for its DocumentComplete event after calliung Navigate() method.

Do you know what could cause such time delay in IE object?

Thank you very much
