I notice this Chris is going through the same learning curve that I did
when writing ASP components in Delphi for the first time.
It was quite stunning for me to find that IIs locks DLL's and won't
release them until shutdown - I thought it was just me not releasing
stuff correctly.
The answer if you ask MS is to use MTS but that brings its own set of
problems.
The thing that gets me is what happens when you release your ASP app
onto a commerical web server? - you may find it more difficult just to
shutdown IIs when you have a few hundred people connected. If I was a
commerical web provider I would be worried about hosting an app that
used unknown COM objects + ASP.
