MM recommends to set up IIS to run scripts "in context". MS recommends 
to set up IIS to run "out of context". This setting is also known as 
"Run is seperate memory space" and "in/out of process".

OS Sandboxes allowed CF to impersonate a different OS account for each 
Sandbox. That means that all OS ACL's automatically apply (except for 
things that use CreateProcess()).
WIth MX, everything that CF does is done under 1 OS account.
