[FX.php List] No GC (Garbage Collection) in IIS installation

[Leo R. Lundgren]

Maybe!

While Googling before I noticed there was a lot of discussion about  
permission denied related to this error. So I guess that if you now  
get this error, it is at least finding a folder, and then you can go  
on searching about the permission problems.
