I am facing an issue with the session persistence. I am automating a website
using Watin and initializing a new instance using VB.net code. The Windows
authentication box is used to logon. The issue am facing is that even though
every time the script is run the Fresh instance of IE(not a new tab) retains
the session from the first instance opened(even if this window is closed).

Clearing of the history/cookies/temp/passwords files doesnt help. The system
has to be restarted.

Hello,

have you tried posting your issue in the VB.NET newsgroup? They may help you
in a better way.

Greetings,
P. Di Stolfo

Will do that too. I have tried creating an instance from different language,
the issue still faced. My concern is the fact that even though i am clearing
my cache/temp files etc why is the session still persisting. It seems to be a
very big security issue.
