by default you cannot run out of process server components from an ASP.
There are 2 things you can do:
1. make it an ActiveX DLL
2. change the registry entry on the server that is mentioned in your error message.

Be aware, there is good reason why this is disabled by default: performance!
An AX DLL is usually faster than an Exe. That's why it's disabled by default.
So, better make a DLL out of your COM component.
