Most browsers will timeout after a 15 minute request, so I can't imagine that a single page runs for 15 minutes. If you have such a long running process, consider putting it in another thread and hitting the users w/ some type of please wait... page that refreshes until the job is done. If the user logs out before the job is done, then do you need the results? In cases where you do, I pass the userID to the job and when the job is done it will let the user know via email.

IE 5 and 6 both have default timeout periods of 60 minutes; I do agree that we ought to background this though in the long term. When originally designed we really never expected things to need to run so long. (They rarely do, but it does happen)
