you are correct, in vb shared means share at class level. just remove the shared attribute.

Our CMS sets a cookie when you login. Various applications within the CMS check the cookie to establish the user's name, permissions, etc.

The class below is what is references whenever we need to grab the user data. For instance, when the user saves a database record, we attach their username to the record by requesting SecureUsers.su_strUser

The problem (as you can probably guess) is that if two people trigger a thread at the same time, one user's data can be 'grabbed' by the other's process.

I'm assume this is because these variables are all 'shared', as 'shared' is at the class level rather than instance level, correct? If so, are Public Properties the solution? Or should I be calling a public function within this class that returns the values (creating an instance of the class first)? Or...?
