Are you attempting to call a "remote" COM object. e.g. the Web1 is the 
calling the COM Object on PC1? I've never need to do remote COM calls - I 
suspect that it could be done, but without a "listening" port I'm not 
exactly sure how it would work.

I would think you will need to load that COM object on each machine.
