ASP / IIS : Server.CreateObject() Issues

All:

I have been working to migrate to IIS 6.0 and found issues with using
'Server.CreateObject()' versus simply 'CreateObject()' in our ASP scripts.

If 'Server.CreateObject()' is used, web objects can be created until
something breaks and then most of the remaining CreateObject() calls in the
script fail.

But removing the string 'Server.' from the CreateObject() call remedies the
problem and allows objects to be instantiated as effectively as they were in
IIS 5.1.

I stopped working with the MS support case because it was not going
anywhere. Has anybody else had a similar experience with this function?

Thanks!
