if you are using Windows Server 2003, you do not have to restart IIS. You
can simply refresh the app pool that the web site is using, assuming you
have a web application that is using the COM objects.
You could also use Enterprise Services, which would allow you to uninstall
and reinstall COM dlls loaded in it without resetting IIS.

I am working with 2 com object dlls that are located in WINNT/SYSTEM32
directory.
When I need to make changes to the DLLs, I need to do the following:
1. stop IIS
2. unregister and register the 2 COM object, and
3. restart IIS.
Is there any way that I can move the newest COM object DLLs to the
WINNT/SYSTEM32 directory, without having to stop and restart IIS?
Let me know.
