Hi,
thanks for helping us out, Jarmo!
I learned that if I attach to an IE process that is not opened by
Watir::Browser.New, watir is able to locate the Window by its hwnd and
attach to it.
After this the problem was that the newly created ruby process itself
blocked blocking the main process well. This problem went away after I
changed element.rb::Element.spawned_click_no_wait_command so that I
prefixed the returned command string with "start". Now it is "start
ruby #{command}".
Now it works for me on Windows 7.
