Did you install any driver or hardware recently? Do you got any applications or hardware that uses or reference to DCOM? I guess it has nothing to be alarmed, it could only be some applications didn't work properly. if you want to dig some more check out this link from technet http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738214%28v=ws.10%29.aspx DCOM Security Enhancements What does DCOM do? The Microsoft Component Object Model (COM) is a platform-independent, distributed, object-oriented system for creating binary software components that can interact. The Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) allows applications to be distributed across locations that make the most sense to you and to the application. The DCOM wire protocol transparently provides support for reliable, secure, and efficient communication between COM components. For more information, see "Component Object Model" on the Microsoft Web site at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=20922. Who does this feature apply to? If you only use COM for in-process COM components, this section does not apply to you. This feature applies to you if you have a COM server application that meets one of the following criteria: The access permission for the application is less stringent than the launch permission that is necessary to run the application.The application is usually activated by a remote COM client without using an administrative account.The application is only meant to be used locally. This means you can restrict your COM server application so it is not remotely accessible. Every second counts..make use of it.

Hi, Thank you for the post. I searched the GUID in the registry and it came back to : HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\csimSecurityDesktop.SecurityDesktop - Please check if all the users unable to establish an RDP session? If yes, does restart server resolve this issue? You may install the following hotfix and see if it works. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2661001 Regards, Nick Gu - MSFT
