We have a customer who runs windows 2003 sp1. We have a application that uses
a com object to comunicate with another application. The strange thing is
that the com object works fine for a few hours and then it seems like the com
object loses it's security rights, because it fails on
server.createobject("object"). Once you do a iis reset, it seems to be fine
for a while. The problem is that it is random. Sometimes it works for a day,
other times they have to reset iis 10 to 20 times a day. At first we thought
it was a domain policy, so we removed the machine from the domain, but it
still does it. We even took a new machine and reinstalled everything, but no
luck. What could the problem be?

Sounds like the COM+ package isn't setup correctly and is trying to access
something it doesn't have access, maybe a certain method is trying to write
a file or log entry. A few suggestions, can you easily reproduce this
error? Is so, make sure you run filemon and regmon by Sysinternals. This
can help track down what is getting denied. Have you looked in the event
log to see if anything is being denied?
