Excellent code
One problem though:
You can not show form as non-modal

Resolution
Compile it to ActiveX EXE instead of ActiveX DLL.

How To:
1. Change project to ActiveX EXE
Menu command: Project - IEext Properties
Change "Project type" to ActiveX EXE
2. Compile
3. Change menu reference
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt
res://C:\IEext.dll/CONTEXT_HANDLE.HTM
-->
res://C:\IEext.exe/C ONTEXT_HANDLE.HTM

Very nice :) For me, it's pure 5 stars. Hope you don't mind :))) But there is a problem. I would like to use it in my application, but I simply can't notify my app (with event) that menu item is clicked. I put raiseevent in ShowInfo func, along with some msgbox. I got msgbox message, but without event in app. Can somebody help me with that?

Dear dUGI
Sorry for the late answer. I was on vacation.
You are dimensioning a NEW instance of the class in your app but the script in the html file has created another instance. You won't get anything from that. Try something like shellexecute or something to load your app etc.
