While reviewing a tax application, I found out that this app tries to 
VarCat(VT_BSTR, VT_DISPATCH) and viceversa. By allowing this conversion, 
the application proceeds normally until the next step.

Changelog:
* Allow VT_DISPATCH parameters for VarCat

The following cryptic message was allegedly found in the inner edge of a Windows
XP installation CD:

It is rumored that only a true Unix Wizard can decypher this mysterious message,
which supposedly encodes the true nature and purpose of the software.
