Bug in the CacheDependency or Cache object? Help!

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Using ASP.Net 2.0 on Vista with IIS6, if I set a CacheDependency on a file into a Cache entry that I insert and then delete a subdirectory in the same directory that the file is located in then my dependency is triggered and my cache object is deleted.

If I create a directory or delete another file in that same directory then the Cache is not bothered.

My CacheDependency specifies the full and proper file name and not just the directory path.

Is this a known problem?

Fix or workaround?
