I'd like to figure when and why this is happening. I've never seen this setting in a default install and I can't imagine even an ISP would lock that down since it's pretty common to require custom handlers as part of your Request processing for ASP.NET applications.
So, I'd be curious to understand what circumstances cause these sections to be locked - it would seem to me that someone explicitly locked the handlers/modules sections down, because I'm pretty sure it's not the default setting.

I think you will be getting this issue when using managed code module (and not the wc.dll).
To fix this update this file
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\config\ApplicationHost.config
Update:
<section name="handlers" overrideModeDefault="Deny" />
change deny to Allow
You will probably also get another error with another entry. I forget which one it is
but just change that one to allow as well
