_IENavigate and Win 8.1 bug

[Broadcastic]

Just upgraded to Win 8.1 from Win 8 and script stopped working.

It freezes on IENaviagate - just sits there does nothing

Everything was working under Windows 8

 
#include <IE.au3>#include <Array.au3>
$EnableActiveX=3; RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet 
Settings\Zones\3\", "1200", "REG_DWORD", $EnableActiveX)
$oIE = _IECreate("www.facebook.com");WinSetState 
("[CLASS:IEFrame]","",@SW_MAXIMIZE);
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")
Func Terminate()  HotKeySet("{ESC}");  _IEQuit($oIE );
 ;Enable Scripting 
ActiveX $EnableActiveX=1; RegWrite("HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet 
Settings\Zones\3\", "1200", "REG_DWORD", $EnableActiveX)
  Exit;EndFunc
#Region --- CodeWizard generated code Start ---;MsgBox features:

_IENavigate($oIE,'http://www.bing.com/news');
ConsoleWrite("here");$sText = 
StringStripWS(_IEBodyReadText($oIE),7);$arrWords=StringSplit($sText," 
");;_ArrayDelete($arrWords,"1-168");
Sleep(999);Dim $arrURLSWhile $iMsgBoxAnswer=2 $iMsgBoxAnswer 
= MsgBox(49,"Facebook","Please login with 
facebook") Select  Case $iMsgBoxAnswer = 1 ;OK
  Case $iMsgBoxAnswer = 2 ;Cancel
 EndSelect #EndRegion --- CodeWizard generated code End ---
WEnd

is there any workaround? I reinstalled AutoIt with 32 bit setting - same thing.
