I am writing a web service to talk to a single threaded Com Componant. Is
there a simple way to single thread my Web Service so the Com Object doesnt
get confused?

Below is a stab:
<WebMethod()> _
Public Function MyWebService(ByVal MyParm As string)
Static Dim SyncObject As New Object
SyncLock (SyncObject)
SillySingleThreadedCOMObject.Method(MyParm)
End SyncLock
End Function

That should work within an appdomain. If you want to synchronise access
to the COM object across the whole machine you'll need to use a mutex.

Why is the COM single threaded - is it a VB6 component running in an
STA? If so, you can usually just add the component to COM+ and you'll
get access to a lot more threads from the COM+ STA threadpool.
