Obviously, I can't help you with this. You need to find out how this crypto
component works. From your description, it is doing something that requires
access to the profile settings. I just described one such example: accessing
a digital certificate stored in a Personal Store. But there could be other
activities. Is the author not available?

You don't need to do this directly. You could write an intermediary COM+
object that is called from the ASP page, and then calls LoadUserProfile,
then calls the "real" COM+ object. Just make sure both COM+ objects run in
the same COM+ application (I'm using COM+ language, but MTS does the same
thing).

For the reasons I described.
