    Form Authentications tend to remain active even after you restart the computer. I was wondering how this whole authenitcation works since i have noticed that even when i turn my PC off and come back days later, i am still authenticated without being asked for my username and password. Is there anyway to make sure that an actual computer restart will mean that you need to authenticate again?

      The site could potentially still allow Anonymous access or you have persistence turned on, ie. Cookie is written to the client machine. Goto IE and delete all your cookies and try accessing the site again. Gerry.
