Well, I'm out of ideas, but I think that this article contains your answer in the chapter: "Accessing ServiceHost in IIS". It seems you need to build your own HostFactory because out of the box IIS uses the standard HostFactory and practically controls the creation and destruction of Hosts. By providing your own HostFactory you can add your own code to control the initialization and destruction...
You can use the IDisposable pattern with finalizer on the class that holds the resources.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
