Does your app use any Office objects? I have a very dim and distant memory of writing some VB6 code back in 2001 or so that used Word and Excel COM objects, and that would spit a 429 if the app was installed on a users' PC who didn't have Office installed...

The most likely cause is a missing or unregistered/corrupt ActiveX control, see this link. Does your application have an installation program you should have run? Otherwise you'll have to look through the project dependencies and try and guess to see what is missing if the error context doesn't give any clue.
