lately received "genuine" activation problem after one of two things recent May
updates or after installing Visual Studio Express Web/C#/VB and the SP1
Update. Windows update then failed to install an update SP1 Vista.
in the event log there is a DistributedCOM error
The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation
permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
8BC3F05E-D86B-11D0-A075-00C04FB68820
to the user Home-PCUSER SID
(S-1-5-21-471328347-769042369-3731885411-1000) from address LocalHost (Using
LRPC). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services
administrative tool.

display Component Services there?
