That is what our test show, but what about Virtual Directories? My
understanding is that they should use the root site's application and
session state, but my tests show differently. What behavior have you seen
with Virtual Directories? Do you see a difference between different IIS
versions?

By default when you create a Virtual Directory in 2000 Pro or XP Pro, it is
created as an Application. (The only difference between a Virtural
Directory and an Application is that the Application is isolated from the
rest of the web site) What you have to do to change this back to a Virtual
Directory is to open the property window and click the "remove" button next
the the Application Name in the Application Settings area. When you do
that, the directory is now a traditional Virtual Directory.

Thanks for the Help Paul Wilson!
