VB Program won't work on Vista

I have made a program in VB which works like a charm on 3 computers running Win 7. But when I try to run it on a PC running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit I get this error:

Error msg

The fact that it works flawlessly in Win 7 makes me think that it probably is some easy fix I can find. Maybe changing compile options or something like that. If anyone knows anything about this, I would really appreciate your help!

I'm using VB 2010 Express, and I'm running the .exe from Desktop

This error is generated by: 

WebBrowser.Navigate

Here's a question very similar to yours, same error while using WebBrowser.Navigate:

How to fix "The requested resource is in use. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800700AA)"

This is definitely a client side error, I can also see that back-window titled "Internet Explorer script error" - Do you have your Vista fully updated?

This error doesn't really deals with the operating system architecture, it normally occurs when IE is doing something else, for example: displaying a window.alert message box.

I say post your full code if possible, and also copy the entire message provided in that error window and post that here instead of the screenshot you currently have.

Are you using Add-in Express in your application?

If so, try this as a quick test to see if it still generates the error, got it from this discussion:

private void adxieCommandItem1_OnClick(object sender, object htmlDoc) 
{ 
this.SendMessage(0x400 + 1000, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero); 
} 

private void IEModule_OnSendMessage(AddinExpress.IE.ADXIESendMessageEventArgs e) 
{ 
if (e.Message == 0x400 + 1000) 
{ 
object dummy = Type.Missing; 

try 
{ 
IEApp.Navigate("http://www.add-in-express.com";, ref dummy, ref dummy, ref dummy, ref dummy); 
} 
catch (Exception err) 
{ 
MessageBox.Show(err.Message); 
} 
} 
}
