We strongly recommend that all users upgrade to Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) version 6.0 running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003. IIS 6.0 significantly increases Web infrastructure security. For more information about IIS security-related topics, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

SYMPTOMS
When you make a request for a Web page from Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), the server reports the following error message to the browser:

Error 270 (0x0000010e)



CAUSE
This error occurs when an IIS application calls a COM object that changes the thread type and does not reset it before exiting. The next time IIS tries to use this thread, the thread type is checked and if it is incorrect, the error 270 is returned to the client.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows NT version 4.0. For additional information, please see the following article(s) in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

152734 How to Obtain the Latest Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 4.0. This problem was first corrected in Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4.
