Basically, I have generated a .snk file and included it in my assembly
and my C# class inherits from ServicedComponent. The first time I
access my class it self registers (I didn't do anything to make that
happen). However, every time I build and then run again I have a new
entry in the Registry for the COM stuff and I'm getting gazillions of
entry's. How can I stop this and stick with only a single
registration.

Define a GUID for the Class, and for your interfaces if you're deriving from
one.

[Guid("some guid")]
public class yourclass etc etc

I assume you're talking about new registry entries under the following keys:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Interface
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib

You are probably seeing new Guids generated because either you're not
specifying your own Guids in code or you don't have a fixed version number
(a fixed version should prevent the auto-generated Guids from changing).
