You can simply remove the Admin context from the list of contexts in your 
Application.config.

Which adapter are you using when you see this error?

ISAPI is faster, but last time I checked it had memory leaks, so wkcgi.exe 
may be a better solution.  But it certainly shouldn't get stuck in an 
infinite loop if it can't contact the appserver.  The unfortunate fact is, 
neither the ISAPI interface nor wkcgi.exe are solid, stable, proven solutions 
at this point.

I've added this bug report to the Sourceforge bug tracker, and hopefully the 
author (Jay Love) can take a look at it soon.  If you have a C compiler handy 
you could also look into it yourself.

But certainly, if you don't need the additional speed, your most solid 
solution on IIS is definitely to use WebKit.cgi.  You could convert it to an 
EXE using py2exe or Installer to gain a small amount of additional speed.
