Alan,

A> IIS is a threading application service. It wants to load the ISAPI module

A> Even if you play around with when your module actually connects to your db
A> and disconnects, you will certainly suffer concurrency lockouts from the
A> server.

did you try it?
What are your suggestions/assumptions based on?

Ciao
