Hello all,

We have just moved an application from one server to another. The site
has a "remember me" option whereby the user is not required to enter in
any credentials instead they are read from a cookie.

We have been getting some strange errors:

Error Message: "Bad Data".
Error Stack Trace: at
System.Security.Cryptography.CryptoAPITransform._DecryptData(IntPtr
hKey, Byte[] rgb, Int32 ib, Int32 cb, Boolean fDone)

How is the "decryption key" produced - is it possible that it is
related to the server in the same way that ViewState is tied to the
particular server it came from? Please note that this is my attempt to
explain this error.

Thanks in advance,
Jose
