What happens to a cancelled http request from the server perspective?

Here's the scenario.

I request a page from the web server and page requires lot of processing.
Before the response comes to the browser I either hit the Stop button on the
browser or moved on to another page.

Now at the server, does it continue to process the request? or does ASP.Net
terminate the processing because the TCP connection of the HTTP requests is
longer active?

Whats the story here?

Thanks a lot.
