Old clunker re-visited: Session_OnEnd in Global.ASA

Greetings, folks.

Through the years there's always been trepidation about relying on the
Session_OnEnd routine being fired at the conclusion of a user session, hence
my instinctive avoidance of using it in anything I've created.

Now comes a time when it'd actually be desirable to use this feature; can
anyone tell me if its reliability is any better with IIS6 (under Server
2003) than it was with previous IIS incarnations?

Thanks in advance,

Nope - sorry. Aaron's articles still tell the story:

Thanks, Bob; at least there's some consistency there even if it's not the
most desirable ;-)
