How is the DLL loaded from the com object? As Far As I know, when you load the library using LoadLibrary you need to call the FreeLibrary to unload it. If it's implicitly linked, then I think it'll stay as long as your COM object is in the memory. But when the referrence count of the object becomes 0, I think this is marked as the unloadable, though it's in memory, the dlls that has been loaded by it may get unlaoded (though I'm not sure about this :-( ). Please correct me if I'm wrong. Any one who has better info about its working please enlighten us. You said, the ref count is decremented. Is it 0 or 1. Does this get unloaded even when ref count is more than 0.
