    IShellFolder error.

    Hi Friends,

    I am getting an out of memory error every time i call the CoCreateInstance for IShellFolder inside a hook function.
    This problem is only for IShellFolder.
    Any idea?

    Regards and thanks,
    J

    You are leaking memory. For a more detailed reply, can you post some code?

    I guess the stack space is exhausted....I recommend you to put the CoCreateInstance stuff inside a seperate thread so that it will get a fresh stack to play with.
