One possible solution is to run the trouble application in its own memory space
(isolated).  When an application runs in it own isolated process (MTS.exe), it
should not affect the main IIS process (InetInfo.exe).  If the trouble
application fails (bad script, memory leaks, etc.), only the isolated process
should crash (MTS.exe), not the main IIS process (InetInfo.exe).  On drawback
with running applications in their own process.....more RAM demand is placed on
the server.

It's worth a try......

Once you verify which application is causing the process to crash, you can
examine the script to determine if an memory leaks or improperly threaded
components (objects) are used.

I hope this helps.
