>Can you tell me how to locate the component in component services\dcomconfig. I did Start Execute dcomcnfg and then I got no Security tab, nor was the dll reference in the list

Erwin,
Start\Run
dcomcnfg.exe

You'd see a list, select your com server (something like myCom.myComserver) an then properties. You'd see a pageframe with tabs like 'Identity', 'Security'
I'm using XP but just tried on NT server.
