Deploy BHO errors

Question

Hello,

I developed an BHO using C# .NET. Then I create an deployment project and testet the setup on a other machine. It fails with an error in german. translation is something like: cant register ieframe.dll HRESULT: -2147467263

ieframe.dll was recognized as an dependency and was added to the setup project automatically.

actually I think it schold be simple. The "project" contains only one dll. I only want to perform the regasm-action within an msi.

I used some tutorials and examples but I dont get it.

any suggestions?

You should not be distributing/registering ieframe.dll, as that's already on the customer's machine. But you probably shouldn't be distributing a C# BHO at all, for the reasons explained over here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1161489/how-do-i-write-an-ie-8-add-on-in-pure-managed-c
