Selected Answer: C

Depending on how the web application has been built, you might need to create a separate business object to interface with a popup window. This will be the case if you see the “A spying error has occurred” error message. A new object will need to be configured to attach to a running instance of the popup, rather than launching something. Pop-up windows may need to be spied using Win32 or AA mode instead of the usual HTML mode. To speed up development, it might be best to build a separate generic object to handle IE pop-up windows.
