Welcome to AutoIt and the forum!

To automate Internet Explorer I suggest you have a look at the IE UDF that comes with AutoIt.

Looks to me like the explorer you are trying to automate is embedded in another application.

As far as I know there is no tutorial available on how to use the IE UDF.
Best thing is to have a look at the examples in the AutoIt help file for the IE* functions.
Start with _IECreate. All other functions you'll need then depend on what you want to do with the web site.

Actually, its a downloader..  when the exe has been execute, it will automatically download a file from its server.. all i wanted to automate is  "next" 1 c;ocl next. (EULA). so i tried studying autoit automation tutorials..

I have to say that to me, it seems unusual that the tool will not even pick up the window title, does it even have a title?

[Kingceltik]

It doesn't have a title but autoit info says,.

There are numerous way of getting a handle to the window, including finding child windows of the window that owns it and identifying controls on it and such.

Seems like a bit of effort just for a window handle so I'd wait to see if someone has a simple solution.

[Kingceltik]

can you direct me on another way to get the handle of the window?
