    The problem is that one COM component are not working properly.
    In our example was the xmlhttp. A function finish with error that
    Are not controlled. There is a little application from MS that free
    Hunging process. Really this application recycle process.

    Asunto: dllhost.exe taking up all CPU time on webserver

    Hi all,

    Not sure if anyone can help me on this, but I have a problem that is
    affecting a development webserver we run. Various COM components are
    running on the server, and from time to time one of the dllhost.exe
    processes running goes crazy and takes up a large chunk of RAM and
    brings the machine to a standstill. What I'd like to know is... How can
    I determine exactly what is causing this to happen? Besides checking
    every component one by one which I don't have time for, isn't there some
    way of determining which is the one causing havoc?

    Any suggestions appreciated!
