Im going to look into cookies more...
I just found info about "Forms-Based Authentication" which is a MS standard I
guess for asp.net

We try to stick with standards-based web programming, which means we avoid
proprietary solutions like cold fusion, asp, java, and .net. However, if you
are using asp, check the SessionID property of the Session object.
The biggest reason to stick with standards-based programming is that, as a
developer, you want to create large libraries of code that can be recycled in
one way or another. When done to optimal advantage, these libraries will take
years to build and debug. If you stick with standards, your old code will
continue to run well into the future. If you do not, years of your work could
(and probably will) become obsolete because the company controlling the
technology changes their mind about how to do certain things. Talk to a
longtime VB programmer if you want to hear more about this.
