  RFT821 - IE9.0 recording / playback does not work for IE9
  HTML pop-up window.
  

Problem conclusion

• We were not able to get the document handle so the recording
  was also wrong Dialog used to be under windows object as the
  target domain used to be windows. Added the check for this
  dialog now same as IEFrame. Now the recording is also same
  as Win XP  and the playback is also working fine on win7 32
  and 64 bit machines.
