Dim objShellWindows As New SHDocVw.ShellWindows

        If TypeName(rVal.Document) = "HTMLDocument" Then
            If rVal.Name = "Windows Internet Explorer" Then
                rVal.Visible = False
                rVal.Visible = True
                Set ie = rVal
                ie.Quit
                Set ie = Nothing
