SYMPTOMS
A Dllhost.exe process that is associated with a Microsoft COM+ application package that contains a Component Object Model (COM) Transaction Integrator (COMTI) component may stop responding. The problem occurs intermittently, but it may occur more frequently on systems that have fast or multiple processors.
An application dump file of the unresponsive Dllhost.exe process shows a thread that is blocking on a critical section and the owner of this critical section has been orphaned.

WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, rename Snasii.dll. Snasii.dll is used for the Single Sign-On (SSO) service.
If the COMTI Remote Environment is configured to use SSO, do not rename Snasii.dll.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
