Hi Crjunk,

In general, we can use Context.User property to retrieve this user's
information. However, this property has close relations with the
Authentication mode of your web application. You can take a look at the
following two articles. They provides a very good discussion about security
in web applications:

ASP.NET Security: An Introductory Guide to Building and Deploying More
Secure Sites with ASP.NET and IIS
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/04/ASPSec/ASPSec.asp

ASP.NET Security: An Introductory Guide to Building and Deploying More
Secure Sites with ASP.NET and IIS, Part 2

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Felix Wu
