I had the same problem a few days ago.
Search for "account manager" in the past messages.
(try to set the second argument of InitXPCOM)
> I have written a simple c/c++ program on windows to understand
> how xpcom
> works. My objective is to write independent application without using
> mozilla to connect to xpcom module ( ex : cookiemanager )
>
> Below is the very basic code which initializes xpcom and tries to

> the C:\Program
> Files\Mozilla Firefox folder and then executed. Init xpcom works
> properly ,
> but when it tries to create instance of cookie manager
> it fails with error 0x80040154 ( NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED ).
>
> Then I called autoregister() method before trying to create
> instance of
> cookie manager...but that did not help...!
