I agree. Stopping and restarting the IIS services should let you see if the
security settings are going to disappear or not after a reboot [in other
words, I believe the IIS settings may be disappearing when the services are
stopped and restarted and not really because of the reboot].
You might notice that the settings may disappear after the service is
stopped and restarted. I have seen this happen. In this case, I made one
change, stopped and started the IIS services, then went back into the IIS
MMC to confirm that the setting is still there. If it is, make one more
change and stop and restart the service [or maybe even just that one web
site instance, by right-clicking on that web site instance in the MMC].
This sounds really strange, but it was the only way I was able to figure out
how to solve my problem.
