    Help needed ASAP, Security issue!

    I have a security consultant group bashing Microsoft byt stating that the way
    IIS handles Session ID is flawed. They're asking me to, once my users hit the
    first asp page pre-authentication, to then destroy that session id
    (ASPSESSIONID) and re-assign one. How can that be done? It's read only. And I
    keep stating that this is in 128-bit SSL where the header is encrypted. Since
    my code is coming from COM+ (VB6.0) and I'm recycling to the same 'asp' page,
    I can not see a way to abandon the session, since I have items in the session
    prior to login.
    Is there a better approach?
    Is there a way in COM+ VB to trick it by giving it a new page to reset the
    session? I can abandon the session but I won't get a new ID since the page is
    not re-rendered. And during that grey area I'm setting more session values.

    I'm running on a Win2K server w/SP4 and the secureaspsessio nid patch.

    thanx!
