strange problem with asp.net web app calling web service. sometimes 403 sometimes not

G

I have a visual studio solutions that contains for example the
following projects:
project.Admin (web app and web service entry points)
project.Web (web app )
project.Lib ( common stuff that Admin and Web use )

When I rebuild and run the app, Web will call an Admin web service to
authenticate. however, it will get a 403 error with no sub code being
revealed. If I wait a few minutes then it will work. This makes
testing a real pain. I didn't not have this problem before I
reinstalled the os. I have reloaded IIS a couple of times with no
change. What is interesting is that "while" Web will get a 403 trying
to access an Admin web service, I can access the web service just fine
by accessing it directly using IE. The only thing that I've been able
to do is to remove Admin from the solution and just work on Lib and
Web. This was fine for a while, but now I need to work on all three.
I have set the IIS max connections to 40 on this computer, which btw is
xp pro sp2. Also, this is still using VS2k3 w/fw 1.1

any help is appreciated.
