Hello Joe,

sorry, i can only quote myself this time...: "auto impersonation is the spawn
of evil"

if you use autoimp to isolate web apps, upgrade to IIS6 and use application
pools
if you use autoimp for impersonation, do it programmatically only where you
need it.

otherwise this will cause headaches sooner or later.
