Scripts don't sink IPropertyNotifySink-based events. You need to
define an outgoing (aka source) dispinterface, have an
OnReadyStateChange event, and fire that. Look at Flash control's
type library to see how it's done.
Hmm I've tried that but without luck. VS 2005 didn't give me the
option to implement the events interface so I had to do it manually
but in the event loop the vector for the connections seems to be
empty.
See KB article KB200839 "How To Enable ActiveX Control Event Handling on
a Web Page"
Also, show what your sink looks like on the page.
Anyhow, will the IE / it's script engine automatically register to
this event without knowing its name?
I'm not sure I understand this question
And will the script wait with the
onload event until I've fired READYSTATE_COMPLETE?
Usually not. Is this what you want? I thought you wanted the page to
finish loading, and your control continue asynchronously. There is a
techique for making IE aware of your download progress (disclaimer: I
haven't tried it myself). See this series of articles:

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
