Dear All,
I have a strange issue with a Winforms application, I hope somebody have already seen a similar issue and know a solution or the possible reason of it.
The application is a Winform application using .NET 3.5
The application runs on a Win 7 SP1 machine and uses the followings:
- Word interop assemblies (Office 2010)
- some HttpRequest (the responsestream is closed in each case)
- a WCF client proxy - that I dispose after using it
- the system Clipboard to copy paste object into a Word document, the clipboard is cleared after it
- the main task of the tool runs in a backgroundworker DoWork method, and the backround worker is diposed and cleaned after the process is completed.
The issue itself: the application runs as expected, creates a Word report, the background operation finished, the tool is responding the user actions yet. However, if the user don't close it and the application window remain opened and the user opens the
Internet Explorer (8) my application window become frozen, it could not be closed or it does not respond anymore. This issue occurs only after opening the IE but in this case it occurs soon.Can any of the listed elements above interfere the IE? Or any standard
Winforms control?
Thank you very much for your help.
