CWSerial/CWGPIB on Win7 :"The subject is not trusted for the specified action"

Hello,

 

I'm currently trying to migrate a VBA software from WinXP + Excel2000 to Win7 + Excel2010 and I'm encountering a big problem. The software is using activeX control such as CWSerial and CWGPIB but when I'm trying to add them I get the following error "The subject is not trusted for the specified action".

 

I'm more or less certain it's a permission problem, I just can't figure out how to solve it. I'm also pretty sure it's not a VBA version problem because I tried to do the same manipulation on a Win7 + Excel2000 machine and got the same error, so it must be related to the OS.

 

What I have already tried:

 

Regsvr32 on cwinstr.ocx.

Downgrading the Microsoft Office version to 2000 again.

Set Excel's Trust Center to enable all controls without restriction.

Fiddle with the registry keys following instructions on internet for similar problems.

Re-install everything on a new machine.

 

Did anybody face the same problem and/or has a solution? I'm working on a Virtual Machine so I can test every idea without fearing data loss.

 

Thank you for your help!
