Dear monks, I have a problems interacting with the Internet Explorer started as Win23::OLE-object after navigating to an intranet site. I've got the following code: 
use Win32::OLE;
use Win32::OLE::Variant;
use strict;
use warnings;


my $IE = Win32::OLE->new('InternetExplorer.Application') or die "Unabl
+e to create a IE Object\n";
$IE->{Visible} = 1;
$IE->Navigate('http://www.google.com');
sleep 1 while($IE->{Busy});
$IE->Quit();

[download]

This script works fine, the Internet Explorer opens, goes to www.google.com and then closes again. But if I replace the www.google.com with an intranet address (or a https-page) the Internet Explorer opens, navigates to the page and stays open - while the script ends.

Could anyone please tell me why I cannot interact with the object any more after navigating to an intranet site?

Thanks in advance and best regards
