Some further digging using dependency walker i saw a mysterious thing. At some location in the log it writes:

LoadLibraryW("D:\qt\qt-creator\lib\qtcreator\plugins\Nokia\Cored.dll") called from "d:\qt\4.5.0-beta1\bin\QTCORED4.DLL" at address 0x6A2343D8.
Loaded "d:\qt\qt-creator\lib\qtcreator\plugins\nokia\CORED.DLL" at address 0x6E740000.  Successfully hooked module.

So it seems it loaded it properly. But later on there is the following:

LDR: Dll QtWebKitd4.dll base 6ea00000 relocated due to collision with D:
\qt\qt-creator\lib\qtcreator\plugins\Nokia\Cored.dll

followed by

Unloaded "d:\qt\qt-creator\lib\qtcreator\plugins\nokia\CORED.DLL" at address 0x6E740000.

and at least

LoadLibraryW("D:\qt\qt-creator\lib\qtcreator\plugins\Nokia\Cored.dll")
returned NULL. Error: Die angegebene Prozedur wurde nicht gefunden (127).

(The german text reads in english: "the given procedure was not found")

For me this looks suspicious. Anyone able to give me hints to track down the issue.
Could i be a solution to build the QT library (4.5.0-beta1) from source again (besides the people of trolltech/nokia) ?

Remark: This is on a Windows NT 4.0 Workstation with SP6a and IE6 installed also (I know it's rather old, but a requirement here).

This is exactly the error message I got, too. Until otherwise proven , I am convinced that the msvc dll's are missing (e.g., not found or no manifest). Did you try to load the offending dll in dependency walker (instead of the exe file)?

Cheers, A_
