Win-2003, IIS IASPI VB and ADOVB Issue - Cannot create object.

We have a web site running on Win 2000 just fine, but it will not
run on Win 2003.

We have several small VB apps which connect to SQL Server
to gather up information.

The VB apps are executed by ISAPI extensions, so they are running
under the same security context as the ISPI extension is.

The problem is, the VB apps cannot create a new ADODB.Connection object.
Because of this, their is also no error information returned.

I'm assuming it's a security issue under the internet guest account because
they run fine when running under the admin account.

Also note that some of the ISAPI extensions also use ADODB and they all
work ok. Just the VB apps are failing.

Also, just a note. We have tried using FileMon and RegMon to try detecting
who
is failing, and it simply is not showing us any information!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
