This is the code I used and it worked fine. Maybe you could post more code.

***Begin VB Code***

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Set PyObj = CreateObject("PythonComTest.TestClass")
    MsgBox PyObj.SomeMethod
End Sub

***End VB Code***


***Begin Python Code***

class PythonCOMTest:
    _public_methods_ = [ 'SomeMethod']
    _reg_progid_ = "PythonComTest.TestClass"
    _reg_clsid_ = "{41E24E95-D45A-11D2-852C-204C4F4F5020}"
    def SomeMethod(self):
        return "Hello!"

if __name__ == '__main__':
    print "Registering COM server..."
    import win32com.server.register
    win32com.server.register.UseCommandLine(PythonCOMTest)

***End Python Code***
