invalid InternetSetStatusCallback : ERROR:12018

[Ryan]

I keep getting this error with an apllication within outlook, any ideas how I
can fix it_ I have been told its a wininet problem and computer specific. I
tested this out on another computer and it did work. Any ideas why I would
have this probelm?

WinInet error codes are listed here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/wininet/wininet/wininet_errors.asp

It says 12018 is ERROR_INTERNET_INCORRECT_HANDLE_TYPE with message "The type
of handle supplied is incorrect for this operation.". It sounds like if this
error code is received, it is a bug, not expected behaviour.

Therefore, this is more of an Outlook question.

Process Explorer from sysinternals.com can tell you the call stacks of each
thread at the time of the error. This, however, requires a high degree of
technical knowledge.
