do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application

Hi,

I though that it would be useful to include this as this has appeared many times:

If you receive this message: 

The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{61738644-F196-11D0-9953-00C04FD919C1}
 to the user XXXXXXXXXXXXXX.  This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

When you search for the GUID, you will find that it relates to IIS WAMREG admin Service, so you should open Component Services console (comexp.msc / dcomcnfg), and browse to:

Component Services->Computers->My Computer->DCOM Config

And review Security configuration for your account at Launch and Activate.

You can check the process at https://support.microsoft.com/kb/920783/en-us too

The point here is that you may find the same error with different GUIDs, as for example oSearch DCOM Configuration, so you should do the same thing.

 Cheers!

    Title of the article says "do not..." but the body of the article doesn't really give any reason why not. Any chance to update wither the title or the body? I'd be interested in knowing if there are any security or other drawbacks when granting the permissions to get rid of the events in log. Thanks!
