SYMPTOMS
When you install DCOM95 on a non-US version of Windows, a system message
about a version mismatch in CompObj.dll might appear. This message appears
when you restart the computer after completing the installation. After the
you dismiss the message box, the system replaces the CompObj.dll installed
by DCOM95 with the pre-existing CompObj.dll.
CAUSE
DCOM95 does not install a localized version of CompObj.dll. When you start
Windows 95, it checks the file versions of a set of known DLLs. If Windows
95 finds a version mismatch or a language conflict, it restores the
conflicting file with the original copy of the file.
RESOLUTION
The message box is benign, and you can safely ignore it. DCOM95's copy of
CompObj.dll has the same functionality as the original CompObj.dll. Since
DCOM95's version of CompObj.dll is not localized, there is a language
conflict between DCOM95's version of the DLL (ENGLISH) and the
international version. As a result, the system message appears.
STATUS
This problem was corrected in DCOM95 build 2420.
