Hi Bruce. Thanks for your response. I'm not sure exactly what you mean
by "you are probably storing session is a vb module". We have a C# app.
First of all, we are using forms authentication, e.g. calls to
SetAuthCookie (and the logout call quoted above). How could this be a
bug in our code, the forms authentication is what's storing the state
itself, right? How could one forms authentication logout log out the
other one? Are you saying that maybe there's some web.config setting
wrong that controls forms authentication that we should change? We have
some other application session state that we store in the Session built
in usercontrol variable. Is this wrong?

I also replicated this in the .net 1.1 version of our app.

thanks,
Bob

The problem ended up being that our call to SetAuthCookie passed in
true for the parameter to create a persistent cookie, I changed it to
false and it ended up working. Hope this helps someone else. Thanks
everyone.
