Just a few days ago, I was using 'active topics' to check up on my members, after clicking through to one of the threads, when I hit the back button my last vist time had been changed to the current time.  I know before I would only change after you closed your browser completely.  What is going on here?

It sounds like that for some reason the your browser or the web server reset your ASP session, this would mean that the last visit date session variable would be lost and so when a new one is created it would be with the newer date of when you last moved within the forum.

It must be server side, because it is happening to all of my users.  What setting must I change server side to correct the problem? I'm running Server 2003, IIS 6.

It could be that your server is not setup to hold ASP sessions, there is an artcle on this on the MS site, or you could be running another application that uses session.abandon to reset the ASP session.

What is really funny is that the forums are running in their own Application Pool and thus should be isolated from all the other sites running on the server with it.  I will try replacing the existing active_topics.asp with a fresh install to see if that works; maybe it has become corrupted?
