My copy of OLE/COM Object viewer seems to hide all component categories with GUIDs > 0x80000000. Very frustrating -- I just wasted 2 hrs trying to figure it out; after changing the CATID to a new GUID with the high bit 0, my category now appears in the viewer. Is this a known bug in the OLE/COM Object viewer? (posting from rip-van-winkle land: I am using MSVC++6.0, OLE/COM Object viewer v5.0, Windows 2000)
